Principal's Message

Dear Palisades Families,

Welcome to our school community. It is truly a joy to welcome you to Palisades Charter Elementary.

Pali has always been a special place — a school where relationships matter, where children are seen and supported, and where families play an essential role in shaping our community. Over the past year, our shared experiences have deepened these connections even further. What defines us is not only our history in the Palisades, but the way we continue to move forward together with care, resilience, and hope.

This year, our guiding theme is Healing, Growing, and Leading Together. You will see this reflected in our classrooms, our community events, and the way we support every child’s academic and social-emotional development. We believe schools are strongest when they nurture both learning and belonging.

While our permanent campus is being rebuilt, we are grateful to be learning together at Brentwood Science Magnet. Our interim home has quickly become a vibrant space filled with curiosity, kindness, and unmistakable Pali spirit. Wherever we are, our values travel with us.

We also look ahead with excitement. The rebuilding of our campus in the Palisades represents more than construction — it represents our shared future. Our community’s strength lies in the relationships we build today and the vision we hold for tomorrow.

Please know that you are an important part of this story now. We welcome your partnership, your voice, and your presence in our school community. If there is ever anything you need, we are here to support you.

Thank you for entrusting us with your children and for joining us on this journey.

 Warmly,
