A Message from Our Principal

Dear Mark Twain Families, 

I want to take a moment to reflect on the achievements of the first half of the school year here at Mark Twain. It has been a joy to see our students grow academically, socially, and emotionally each day.

Our teachers and staff have worked tirelessly to create engaging and meaningful learning experiences for our students. I am so proud of the perseverance and enthusiasm our students bring to the classroom. Their achievements, both big and small, remind us daily of the importance of the work we do together.

As we head into the holiday break, I encourage you to take time to relax, recharge, and enjoy special moments with your loved ones. Our school will be closed from December 20, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. to January 13, 2025, at 7:30 a.m. We look forward to welcoming everyone back. 

Wishing you and your family a safe, joyful, and restful holiday break.

Warm regards,

JJ Albert
