Dear Parents, Guardians, and Community Members,
I hope this letter finds you well and welcome to the superintendent’s comments page! It is my honor to extend a warm welcome to all of our students, families, and staff members. I am extremely grateful you have chosen Sebeka Public School for your educational experience. Sebeka has been my home for the past 28 years. 27 years as the band director and I completed my first year as the superintendent.
First and foremost, I would like to extend my deepest appreciation to our dedicated students, talented teachers, and supportive families. Your unwavering commitment to education is truly commendable, and it serves as a testament to the strong sense of community that we have fostered within our schools.
Throughout the year, we strive to provide an exceptional learning experience for every student. Our educators implement innovative teaching methods and utilize cutting-edge technology to enhance the educational journey. We firmly believe in equipping our students with the knowledge, skills, and values they need to thrive in an ever-changing world.
I am delighted to share that in 2023 our district received a designation of “School of Excellence” from the Minnesota Elementary Principals Association. Our students have excelled in various academic and extracurricular activities, showcasing their talents and passion. Their achievements reflect the outstanding efforts of our teachers, staff, and administrators who have nurtured their growth and provided them with invaluable opportunities.
I also want to acknowledge the tremendous support we receive from our community members. Your involvement, whether through volunteering, attending school events, or contributing to fundraising efforts, greatly enriches our educational programs. We are grateful for your partnership and look forward to continued collaboration in the coming months.
As we move forward, we will remain focused on our mission to provide a world-class education for all students. We are dedicated to continuous improvement and recognize that challenges may arise along the way. However, with the unwavering support of our school community, I am confident that we will overcome any obstacles and achieve new heights of excellence.
Please remember to regularly visit our school website for the latest updates, important announcements, and upcoming events. We value open communication and encourage you to reach out to us with any questions, concerns, or suggestions you may have. Your feedback is invaluable as we work together to create an exceptional learning environment.
Once again, thank you for your ongoing support, and let us continue to inspire and empower our students to reach their full potential. Belong. Believe. Become!
All the best,
Dave Kerkvliet “Mr.K.”
Superintendent
