Principal's Message

Dear Kelso Families:

Welcome to Kelso K-8 School for the 2025 - 2026 school year. I hope you will find our staff warm, caring and responsive to your needs. If we, in the office, can help solve any problems - small or large - please do not hesitate to involve us. You can count on the fact that our entire staff; teachers, administration, office staff and custodians are committed to helping all of our students have a productive and enjoyable year.

As members of the Kelso School community you have the power to determine how successful your school year will be, especially those in the 6th – 8th grade. The teaching staff and administration will provide you with numerous opportunities to get involved in pursuits both academic and extracurricular. You will find that one of our teacher’s primary goals is to help all students to develop their talents and abilities as far as you are willing to take them. When you have Cheetah P.R.I.D.E. academic achievement is inevitable. As the principal, I hope that you can commit to being P.R.I.D.E.ful this school year.

The ultimate decision about how successful you will be in school is in your hands. You can make the difference between a mediocre experience and a truly successful, satisfying one. On behalf of the entire Kelso K-8 School Team and Family we look forward to working with you and your son/daughter. It is our wish that each student have a successful and memorable year and with your partnership we can see that wish come true in many ways.

I look forward to leading the charge into a amazing school year. Go Cheetahs!!!
