Happy May, Team Adams 14!
This month brings so many celebrations to our community. During this first week of May, we celebrate National School Principals’ Day (May 1) and Teacher Appreciation Week (May 2-6). Please join me in expressing my deepest appreciation for our wonderful educators!
Our teachers provide an incredible gift each day by inspiring, educating, and empowering our students to succeed. Our principals also influence a variety of academic outcomes by recruiting and retaining high-quality teachers; providing safe and effective learning environments for students; clearly communicating school goals and objectives; leveraging student data to inform instruction; and building relationships with parents, families, and community members. Thank you teachers and principals for all that you do to serve the Adams 14 community!
May is Asian American And Pacific Islander Heritage Month, which celebrates the contributions and histories of individuals of Asian and Pacific Islander descent in the United States. The month of May was intentionally selected to commemorate the immigration of the first Japanese to the United States on May 7, 1843, and to mark the anniversary of the completion of the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869. The majority of the workers who laid the tracks were Chinese immigrants. To learn more about the history of this annual celebration, please click here.
I would like to once again thank our incredible community for their dedication and commitment to making this school year an exceptional one. I am confident about the future of our district and look forward to celebrating each success along the way.
At your service,
Dr. Karla Loría
Adams 14 Superintendent
