A Message From the Principal

Dear Eagle’s View Families,

As the new principal at Eagle’s View Elementary School, it is an honor to have the opportunity to serve such an outstanding community. It is my desire to work with you, your child, and the staff to continue to foster a strong sense of community in order to increase student achievement. 

I am originally from Nebraska but started my teaching career in Alaska. During my years in education, I have worked as a preschool teacher, elementary teacher, middle school teacher, and special education teacher, and now principal. From the varied experiences throughout my career, I have learned that the best method to increase and maintain high student achievement is to foster the development of a strong school community where the principal, staff, and parents collaborate in order to best meet the needs of their students.

I truly believe strong partnerships between parents and staff lead to academic success for all students. Therefore, I invite you to visit our school, your school, and to actively participate in your child’s education. This participation may come in a variety of forms including working as a volunteer at the school, checking your child’s homework on a daily basis, attending classroom and school-wide events and communicating questions or concerns to me and the teachers.  

Again, I am thrilled about being a member of this wonderful community. 

If you have any suggestions or comments, please call our school office at (907) 581-3979 or email me at: jschiaffo@ucsd.net.

Sincerely, 

Jeannie Schiaffo
