Welcome to Renton Park! Renton Park has a long history of a very supportive and active parent community and a staff committed to developing well-rounded learners. How fortunate we are to be a part of such a caring community. Academic excellence, character excellence, and safety continue to be my highest priorities for our learning community. The future of our society truly depends upon the foundations we're building together, today. As elementary educators, we have the privilege of being at the foundation of a child's future success. Though our dedicated staff is committed to helping students acquire strong basic skills, grow in self-understanding, develop self-discipline, and explore the exciting world around them, we must work together. Your involvement is essential for your child's overall success. I believe that parents are their child's primary teacher and learning is a life-long process. I further believe that it is our responsibility as adults to support and respectfully guide children on their journey of becoming healthy, happy, and responsible citizens. We have a limited amount of time to meet many expectations and everything we do in school should be about helping all students meet the rigorous new graduation standards set forth by our state and federal government entities. Only when we make a genuine commitment to work together, child, parent, school, and community, can we truly help every child realize their greatest potential. I hope all parents provide their child with a loving, respectful, safe home, with clear expectations and communication standards. If you have comments or questions, please feel welcome to contact me at (425) 204-2950 or e-mail me at: Jo.Tapper@renton.wednet.edu. In Partnership
