Dear Oakcrest Community Parent/Guardian:
I am delighted to introduce myself as the new principal of Oakcrest Elementary! As we prepare for another exciting school year, I want to extend a heartfelt welcome to every family, student, and community member who makes Oakcrest such a special place.
This summer has flown by, and I hope you’ve enjoyed time with loved ones and made lasting memories. I am honored to join a community that values education, kindness, and collaboration. At Oakcrest, our guiding focus is always: “What is best for our students?” With your partnership and support, I know we’ll continue to make our school an inspiring and nurturing environment for all.
I look forward to meeting each of you, learning about your hopes for our school, and working together to create meaningful experiences for our children. My door is always open—please feel free to reach out with questions, ideas, or just to say hello. I am here to listen and to ensure that every family feels welcome and heard.
I am truly honored to join the Oakcrest community as your new principal and am filled with enthusiasm for the amazing things we will accomplish together. I can’t wait to see Oakcrest shine this year! Our theme this year is to showcase our amazing Eagles by the Oakcrest Rocks Tour 25-26!
Together, let’s make this year an incredible one for our students!
With warmest regards,
Janae Young
