Dear Park Avenue Families,
Welcome to a brand-new school year at Park Avenue! Whether you are a returning family or joining us for the first time, I’m thrilled to welcome you to our school community and to our website.
As the principal of Park Avenue, it is an honor to lead such a vibrant, passionate, and dedicated group of students, staff, and families. I am inspired each day by the commitment of our educators, the support of our families, and the curiosity and enthusiasm of our students.
At Park Avenue, our mission is to nurture the whole child in a warm, nurturing, and challenging environment where every learner can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We believe that the foundation of student success is built through strong home to school partnerships, and I look forward to deepening those connections this year.
We are committed to growing tomorrow’s leaders; students who demonstrate integrity, take initiative, and use their voices to create positive change. Through intentional opportunities and daily interactions, we help our students build confidence, empathy, and a sense of responsibility. We also strive to equip them with the tools they will need in an ever-changing world: resilience, adaptability, and strategic problem solving.
At PARK, we live by our core values:
- Positive mindset
- A hardworking attitude
- Respect for others
- Kindness in all we do
These values are more than words; they are the heart of who we are and how we grow together as a school community.
I look forward to a year filled with meaningful learning, joyful moments, and continued growth for every student. Please know that my door is always open. Whether you have a question, an idea, or just want to say hello, I welcome the conversation.
Thank you for your partnership and for entrusting us with your child’s education. It is a privilege to serve as your principal, and I am excited for all that lies ahead in the 2025–2026 school year.
With gratitude,
Dr. Lynn Coyle
Principal
