Principal's Message

Dear Lockwood Families,

As we enter the second half of the school year, I want to extend my sincere gratitude for your continued partnership. The first part of the year has been filled with growth, learning, and a deeper sense of community, all of which have strengthened our school community,

Compassion has been central to our journey, guiding how we support and uplift each other. As we move forward, I encourage us all to continue practicing compassion in our daily interactions, whether through offering help, listening attentively, or simply providing a kind word to each other. These small acts make a meaningful difference, and together, we can finish the year strong, fostering both academic success and emotional well-being for every student.

Thank you again for your ongoing partnership.

Sam Ramirez
