Dear Parents/Guardians:

It is my pleasure to welcome you and your student(s) to Bladensburg High School.  As the new principal, I am excited and anxious about the opportunity to prepare students with the skills desired for college and or career as well as the multiple new programs housed at our school. I look forward to meeting you and forming a positive energetic partnership.

Parental involvement and consistent communication between home and school is essential to promote the best interest of your child. This line of communication will foster a rewarding and enriching educational experience for students, parents and school personnel. Therefore, you are encouraged to thoroughly read and utilize the material on the school website more effectively to coordinate study schedules and routines. Please check the school website on a weekly basis; this will facilitate communication between home and school.

I wish to congratulate Mrs. Jordan on her new assignment and all of her future endeavors.  I know that Mrs. Jordan will be missed and I am a witness to the hard work that she put into this school and community. 

Finally, our objective is to provide a safe, orderly and challenging academic environment that ensures all students graduate College and Career Ready.  This is best accomplished through the united efforts of parents, students and teachers. Each of us will plan wisely, practice effective organizational skills and faithfully support each other.

Bladensburg High School is "Where excellence is a deliberate practice" and this year we will  "Go beyond expectations."  I am honored to hold this principalship and have high expectations for the 2012-2013 school year.

Yours in Education,

Ms. Mahoney
