Principal & Vice-Principal’s Message

Principal's Message

I would like to formally welcome Mr. Lande as the temporary Vice Principal at Auguston Traditional Elementary.  Like a good leader, I delegated some of my responsibility and he is providing the monthly Principal message. 

Please see Mr. Lande’s wonderful message for the Month of April.  I have included a picture of his first day on the job….I have lost the fashion contest early on in this new partnership!

Staffing Update

Hello Auguston School Community,

I was informed earlier this week that Mr. Gottschalk, due to unforeseen circumstances, was unable to continue in the role we planned for this school year.  Mr. Gottschalk will still be at the school, but just in a mentorship role as previously discussed.  He was a great help in the two days he was here. Thank you Mr. Gottschalk!

Welcome Back after Spring Break

Email sent to parents on March 25

I just wanted to welcome you back after spring break and share some “news” with our school community.  I was informed on the last day before the break that some Elementary schools would be receiving additional administrative support (if they requested it) in light of the work load this school year.   I was happy to hear that Mr. John Gottschalk (Gott-Shock) will be helping me with my duties on Monday’s the rest of this school year.
