Principal's Message

Dear Spreckels Families,
 
As your new principal, I am thrilled to welcome back our returning students, parents, and staff, and to extend a warm greeting to those who are joining us for the first time. I have had the privilege of being a part of this school for the past ten years as a teacher. It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I now step into the role of principal.
At Spreckels Elementary School, the students are the center of all that we do. Spreckels School focuses on meeting the needs of every student and encourages each learner to achieve their personal best. Our highly skilled and dedicated staff strives to provide an engaging and dynamic learning environment that will challenge and inspire all students. We believe that each student can achieve academic success. Educating our children requires parents and teachers working together as team. Through your interest and involvement, you model the importance of school, learning, and establishing high academic and behavior standards for our children. We encourage you to stay connected with us through regular communication, attend school events, and participate in parent-teacher conferences. Together, we can create a supportive and nurturing environment that benefits all our students.
 
We have an active and involved Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) and Educational Foundation that support and contribute to our educational program. Volunteers are welcome in all classrooms. 
 
Our school rules are be respectful, be responsible, and be safe. We follow a positive-behavior policy, and each month, we focus on a character-build trait. Our children learn to be responsible for their actions and demonstrate kindness, concern, respect, and cooperation towards others. 
 
If you have any questions, or if you need additional information, please reach out. Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm. Here's to a fantastic school year ahead!
 
Go Pirates!
 
Mrs. Amanda O'Hara
Principal
