Dear Quail Valley Families:

As principal of Quail Valley Elementary School, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2022-23 school year.  We are so excited to begin another year as partners in education. We are looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure our children can achieve their highest potential. We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our children need support from both the home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a great difference in your child’s education. 

As partners in education, we share the responsibility for our children’s success and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out our responsibilities. We ask that you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:

1) Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience 
2) Completes all homework assignments given by teachers 
3) Reads daily to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills 
4) Shares school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life
5) Informs you if he/she needs additional support in any area or subject 
6) Knows that you expect him/her to succeed in school 

Please consider joining our school volunteer program as our students can greatly benefit from your involvement and contributions to the school’s program and its operations. We seek volunteers to help us with the following activities: Teacher-led instructional support, reading with children who need extra help, school-wide events, student recognition events, and outreach and recruitment of parent and community volunteers For more information on how you can become a volunteer, please contact your child’s teacher or the school office. 

I am honored to serve as principal of QVE. It is truly a privilege to be a part of such an amazing group of staff, students and parents who give it their all, each and every day. I look forward to working collaboratively with you. Please feel free to contact me at 951-244-1937 or email me at lpena@menifeeusd.org with any questions or concerns. 
Sincerely,

Lily A. Peña
Principal
