Letter from the Principal

Dear Simmons Families,

Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year! We are excited to welcome both our returning families and those joining Simmons for the first time.

A new school year brings new opportunities to learn, grow, build friendships, and create lasting memories. Our teachers and staff have been working hard to prepare engaging learning experiences that will challenge, support, and inspire every student.

This year, you will hear us talk about "This Is How We Do It at Simmons." It represents our commitment to high expectations, strong relationships, and a positive school culture. At Simmons, we believe students are most successful when they feel safe, respected, supported, and challenged to do their best. Every decision we make is guided by what is best for students and their success.

Our staff is committed to providing engaging instruction, creating a welcoming environment where every student feels they belong, and building strong partnerships with families. Together, we will help students develop the knowledge, skills, and character they need to be successful in school and beyond.

Your partnership plays an important role in student success. We encourage you to stay connected by reading our monthly Panther Pride newsletter, checking ParentVUE regularly, and communicating with teachers and school staff whenever you have questions or need support.

Thank you for trusting Simmons with your student's education. We are excited to partner with your family and look forward to an outstanding school year.

With appreciation,

Nelson Granadillo
Principal
