Principal's Corner

Welcome to Mendel Elementary School!

At Mendel, we are dedicated to fostering academic excellence while creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where creativity can thrive. We are committed to making sure every student feels welcome and excited to learn. Our school is built on a strong sense of family, and we take great pride in promoting school spirit through our shared student purpose statement.

Our educators work collaboratively each week, alongside resource specialists, to provide the highest quality education to every student. We focus on the whole child, ensuring that we address not only academic growth but also the well-being of our students. By creating a student-centered learning environment, we celebrate individual differences, encourage active participation, and promote collaboration.

Your partnership is essential to the success of our school and the growth of our students. We invite you to get involved—whether it’s by volunteering in your child’s classroom, joining our amazing PTO, participating in School Improvement (CI) events, attending School Advisory Council (SAC) meetings, or joining in on school-wide activities. We also encourage you to stay connected with your child’s teacher throughout the year. We are here to support you and your family, so please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

Once again, welcome to our wonderful school. We are thrilled to have you as part of the Mendel Elementary family!
