Dear Parents, Students, and Community Members,

Welcome to Tatum Elementary! As the principal of this vibrant and amazing school, I am both honored and excited to lead such a remarkable community of learners, educators, and families.

At TES, our mission is to foster a nurturing environment where every child can grow academically, socially, and emotionally. We believe in the importance of creating a positive atmosphere that encourages curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.

Our dedicated team of teachers and staff is committed to providing high-quality education tailored to the needs of our students. We emphasize the development of fundamental skills while also encouraging critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Our goal is to equip students with the tools they need to succeed, not just in school, but in life.

We value strong partnerships with families and believe that collaboration between home and school is essential to student success. We encourage open communication and invite you to participate in various school activities and events. Your involvement is vital in creating a supportive and engaging learning environment for our children.

As we embark on this school year, I look forward to working together to achieve great things. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions. Together, we can make this year an exceptional one for our students.

Thank you for your continued support and dedication to our school community.

Warm regards,

Kelly Sorenson
Principal
Tatum Elementary School
