Welcome to the 2025–26 school year at Lemon Crest Elementary where we’re Planting Possibility every day! I’m thrilled to welcome both new and returning families to a year filled with growth, connection, and opportunity. Over the past year and a half, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know our incredible students, dedicated staff, and supportive families. What makes Lemon Crest special is the way we come together with care, purpose, and a shared belief in what’s possible for every child.
This year, our school-wide goals continue to center on academic achievement, social-emotional well-being, and student attendance. These pillars are deeply rooted in our School Plan for Student Achievement and guide everything we do. Whether we’re nurturing strong readers and thinkers, creating a safe and supportive environment, or encouraging consistent attendance, we believe every student can blossom when given the right conditions to grow.
At Lemon Crest, we ROAR—We are Respectful, On Task, Always Safe, and Responsible. These values shape how we learn, play, and thrive together. I encourage every family to stay connected, join us for events, and engage in meaningful partnership throughout the year. With your support, we’ll continue planting the seeds of possibility and cultivating a joyful, successful year for every learner.
Take care,
Jen Price
