Welcome Back - Letter From the Principal

August 1st, 2023

Dear Meister School Families,

On behalf of the entire staff I would like to welcome our new and returning students and families to the upcoming 2023-2024 school year. Our devoted staff has been preparing the school for your child(ren) and are excited for their arrival on the first day of school, Tuesday, August 15th, 2023.

I am excited to begin my third year at Meister Elementary and look forward to continuing to partner with you to provide your child(ren) with a fun, engaging, and caring school experience.

I would like to introduce a few additions to our staff this year. We are excited to welcome Mrs. Courtney Danko-Searcy, as our Third Grade Teacher, Danielle Fox, as our Media Clerk/Librarian, and Yolanda Miller, as our School Confidential Secretary.These new faces come with many years of experience that will contribute to our school community, helping to make it a successful year.

When the school year is underway you will be receiving regular notices, weekly all-calls, and updates from the school. Please be sure to check your email, child(ren)’s backpacks, Meister School’s Facebook page, and class DOJO so you can stay current with upcoming events. While newsletters and social media are great ways to communicate, please know that I welcome any opportunity to meet with you in person.

I look forward to another wonderful school year!

Kind regards,
Kelli A. Panthi

The lyrics of "Count on Me" resonate with the values we hold dear at Meister Elementary School. This song embodies the spirit of support, friendship, and togetherness that we want to foster in our school community. We believe that by adopting this theme song, we can create a shared sense of purpose and connection among our students, families, and staff. We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead and look forward to a year filled with growth, learning, and meaningful connections. Together, as a Meister Elementary School family, we know we can count on each other.
