Dear Salesian Family,

It is an honor to serve as Principle of Bishop Mora Salesian High School.

Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may improve. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better. -King Whitney Jr.

A beautiful thing about the world of schools is the constant transformation. Every year is different, every student is unique, and every classroom is its own experience. Schools continually evolve. As educators it is our responsibility to ensure that the school's transformation coincides with the needs of the students and of the community.

The teachers at Salesian have accepted the challenge. We are truly living out the spirit of our school motto; we are committed to a loving with abundance, teaching with passion, and inspiring with imagination. Don Bosco's words have been embedded at Salesian, "It is not enough that the young be loved, they must know that they are loved". Salesian has made as a priority the curriculum and instruction of our students. We have recently been blessed with a grant that ensures that our teachers master a variety of research-based, high-yield teaching strategies. Our students are the beneficiaries. We commit ourselves to inspire students into becoming confident and hope-filled leaders of tomorrow's world.

I welcome you to a new school year. I welcome you to your school family. I encourage you to keep a line of communication open to everyone of us here at Salesian. Things are a bit different around Salesian these days. We have a few new faces and few faces with new responsibilities. Please join us at Back to School Night on Thursday, September 13th where you will have the opportunity to meet and greet all of us here responsible for the education of your children.

Thank you for your confidence and continued support.

Your Principal,

August September October November December January/February March
