As we approach the end of another remarkable school year, I find myself reflecting on my last three years as Principal of Westgate.  This year has been filled with achievements, growth, and unforgettable moments, all made possible by the dedication and commitment of every member of our school community. I couldn’t feel more fortunate to be in my position.

First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to our exceptional teachers. Your passion for education, tireless efforts, and genuine care for our students are truly commendable. You have not only shared your knowledge but also built special relationships they will never forget. Your hard work does not go unnoticed, and it is the foundation upon which our school's success rests.

To the parents and guardians, thank you for entrusting us with the education and well-being of your children. Your partnership and involvement in our school community have been invaluable. Whether it was a field trip, school event or helping out in the classroom, please know that we are so appreciative of your involvement. Together, we have fostered an environment where every child feels supported and encouraged to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Of course, none of this would be possible without our amazing students. You are the heart and soul of our school, and watching you learn, grow, and achieve your goals has been the highlight of our year. Learning a second language is hard work and you are all thriving even more due to your efforts. Your enthusiasm, creativity, and determination inspire us all, and we are incredibly proud of each and every one of you.

Last but certainly not least, I want to express my gratitude to our dedicated support staff. From the front office to our Facility Operator, your hard work behind the scenes ensures that our school runs smoothly every day. Your contributions may not always be in the spotlight, but they are deeply appreciated and essential to our success.

As we look ahead to the future, I am filled with optimism and excitement for what the next school year will bring. Together, we have built a strong and supportive community where every individual is valued and encouraged to thrive. Thank you for your dedication, passion, and commitment to our school.

Wishing you all a restful and rejuvenating summer break and look forward to seeing you all in the fall.

With warmest regards,

Your very proud Westgate Principal,

Julie Muhlberger
