Principal's Message

Welcome Portola Panther Families!

Dear Portola Families and Students,

Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I hope your summer was filled with fun, rest, and special moments with family and friends. As your principal, I am excited to welcome both our returning families and those who are new to Portola Elementary. We are proud to serve a community that values education, connection, and the well-being of every child.

This year, we remain committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and engaging environment where every student can thrive academically and socially. Our dedicated teachers and staff have been hard at work preparing for a strong start, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with you to support your child’s success.

We are especially excited to welcome new members to our Portola team and to share new learning opportunities, enrichment programs, and family engagement events planned throughout the year. Please be sure to check our school website, class newsletters, parent square, and social media for regular updates and important information. Open communication between home and school is essential, and we are always here to answer questions, listen to feedback, and work together in support of our students.

Thank you for being an essential part of the Portola community. We are looking forward to a fantastic school year filled with growth, joy, and learning!
