Welcome Message from Principal Dancy
Dear Robert Morris Family,
Welcome back!! Based on our end-of-year data, we truly had a productive year! Our students grew in Reading, Math and Science! We even improved our overall Attendance!! This year, we will continue to set high expectations for all students as we continue to focus on achievement and progress. We are working towards building better relationships with our students via our new Relationships First program. Additionally, we understand the sanctity of gender identity and will ensure that students are treated with respect regardless of how they identify. Our staff will now use “gender neutral” language when addressing students and not segregate school activities by gender. Lastly, in alignment with SDP requirements, students will be made aware of their rights regarding Policy 252.
I believe this will be another year of growth and learning. I encourage every student and parent to embrace the opportunity to make this school year better than the last. We are truly in this together. Every child deserves a great school in the neighborhood in which they live. Robert Morris is a great school with great students, great parents, great staff and great community partners. Together, we can help our children become the productive leaders this world needs.
In partnership,
Tameron Dancy, Principal
