	Yolanda Turbeville,  Principal
	A Message form Mrs. Turbeville       It is truly my pleasure to extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to you as we begin the 2011-2012 school year at Raquel Peña Elementary. As the new principal, I am looking forward to meeting all of you and forming strong and positive partnerships       I look forward to the many opportunities we will have to share our view to help foster an atmosphere that promotes a learning community characterized by child centered instruction and decisions, academic excellence, trust, respect, community involvement, excellent communications and recognition of both student and staff achievement. I am committed to working in collaboration with you to continue to develop and implement this shared vision. Working together as a TEAM we will move forward in our mission this new school year to create a nurturing, disciplined and challenging environment in which all students can learn and become responsible members of society. We have so much to be proud of as a staff, family, and community.
