Superintendent's Page

Dear SD113A Community,

It is my honor and privilege to rejoin SD113A and serve as your superintendent! As we embark on another exciting academic year, I wanted to take a moment to personally welcome you and share some thoughts about our district and our commitment to your child's education.

At SD113A, our mission is to provide every student with a high-quality education that not only meets but exceeds their individual needs and aspirations. We pride ourselves on fostering a nurturing and inclusive environment where every student is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. Our dedicated educators and staff work tirelessly to create an engaging and supportive learning experience for all students.

This year, we are embarking into Our Purpose, Our Plan, a strategic plan, which outlines our commitment to academic excellence, innovation, and holistic student development. This plan, created by stakeholders and community feedback, is a roadmap for our district’s growth and success, guiding us as we implement initiatives and practices designed to enhance student learning and well-being. By aligning our resources and efforts with the goals of our Strategic Plan, we aim to ensure that every student benefits from a comprehensive and forward-thinking educational experience.

Effective communication and personalized learning experiences are at the heart of what we do. The Board of Education and I are deeply committed to maintaining open lines of communication with you. Your feedback, insights, and involvement are crucial to our collective success. Together, we can create a supportive community that empowers our students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

The partnership between home and school is essential to a student’s success. We believe that strong, collaborative relationships with our families enhance the educational experience and contribute significantly to student achievement. I encourage you to stay connected, participate in school events, and reach out with any questions or concerns. Your engagement makes a difference and reinforces the positive impact we can have on your child’s education.

Thank you for being an integral part of our SD113A family. I look forward to working together to make this school year our best one yet.

Sincerely,

Dr. Courtney Orzel, SD113A Superintendent
