Dear Parents & Students:

Welcome back! I am so excited to join the parents, students and staff of Inchelium School. Many of you may remember that I served as the counselor at Inchelium in 1999 and 2000. I really enjoyed the experience, and after obtaining my principal's creditials am looking forward to working with you all again.

I believe people grow in an atmosphere of support and encouragement and I hope students, staff and parents feel this at Inchelium. Feeling safe is also necessary for an effective learning environment so it is important that we follow agreed upon rules for saftey and respect for each person.

Working together we can make great things happen. Please feel free to stop by and share your ideas about how we can continue to improve our school.

Sincerely,
Virginia Elkington, M.Ed
