Husky Families, summer is almost here! 

As we make it down the home stretch of school days and the ABC count down… we look forward into next year and are grateful for our wonderful little community here at Crescent Heights.

Things will undoubtably we different in the Fall with the departure of our beloved Mrs. Stephani, and an earlier start time… however the PTA is steadfast and ready to not only sustain our time honored traditional activities, but is here to embrace the changes as growth opportunities and propel our school to the next level of inclusivity. 

If you chose to participate in any of our PTA sponsored events this year, thank you for your support! Thank you to the dedicated volunteers who add fun and flare to our PTA initiatives, we could not function without you! If you are interested in getting involved next year in bite sized or big ways we would love it, and will be looking for room parents and additional volunteers over the summer. Please reach out if you have interest in getting involved.

Husky Adults,

As the school year officially comes to an end and I begin my “lasts” with our Husky Community, I hope you know that I am honored to have served as your child’s principal for the past six years.

It wasn’t an easy decision for me to leave Crescent Heights because I love so much about the school, community, spending time with your family and was hoping to watch our Huskies grow for many years to come. For me, your children are the best part of CHE and made each day exciting and fun! I have loved spending time together learning, growing relationships, laughing, learning from our mistakes, and working together to make Crescent Heights a safe and fabulous place for everyone.

I have many wonderful memories of my time as a Husky, and thank you for allowing your child to join me for smiles, fun, dance parties, lunch bunches, giggles, after-school groups, art parties, principal of the day, birthday photos, hugs, slime and water splash, music concerts, spirit days, more hugs, and much, much more!

I hope you and your family will join me on Friday, June 14th, from 6 to 7 for our final Popsicles with the Principal. We’ll have opportunities for photos, hugs, and final goodbyes.

With Respect and the Hope of Continued Relationships,

Cassandra Stephani
Continuing to be Proud to have been CHE’s Principal for six years

Note: you may be asked to log in to our website to submit a nomination.

Did you know that we also have two amazing staff members retiring this year? 

Kim Albers—she is the amazing woman who keeps our office running. She greets you with a friendly voice when you call, helps you figure out enrollment, and even coordinates field trips. 

Rhonda Steinman - she is our librarian and instills a love of books into each of our children. She keeps the library running, supports us during book fairs, and has been a champion of our Books for Birthdays program. 

They both will be missed and we wish them well in their retirement. Be sure to say goodbye to them before the end of the year.
