Principal's Message

Winter 2026

Hi Spartan Families,

Happy New Year! I hope our students, families, and staff enjoyed a restful winter break. As we begin the Spring 2026 semester, I am excited for the opportunities ahead and grateful to be part of such a strong school community.

Our students continue to build on the hard work of the fall semester as they set goals, challenge themselves, and strive for excellence in academics, activities, service, and leadership. At South Warren, we are guided by our SWORD expectations: Spartans Work Together, Obtain Excellence, Respect Others, and Demonstrate Responsibility. These values shape our culture and prepare students for success both in school and beyond.

I am thankful for our dedicated staff, supportive families, and engaged community partners. Together, we create an environment where students feel supported and inspired to lead. As we move through the semester, I encourage every Spartan to stay engaged, take ownership of their learning, and make a positive impact each day. Leaders rise to greatness!

Go Spartans!
