Dear Pascual-Ledoux Academy Families,
Welcome to a brand-new school year! It is with great excitement, gratitude, and joy that I introduce myself as your Interim Principal for the 2026–2027 school year. My name is Amy Green, and I am honored to join the Pascual-Ledoux Academy family.
For the past 31 years, I have proudly served Denver Public Schools as a teacher, central office leader, assistant principal, and principal in both elementary and secondary schools. This is my fourth opportunity to serve as an interim principal, and each experience has reminded me that the heart of every great school is the people who fill it with hope, kindness, and a shared commitment to children. I am excited to build upon the incredible foundation already established at Pascual-Ledoux Academy and to partner with you as we help every child learn, grow, and shine.
At Pascual-Ledoux Academy, we believe that every child deserves to feel safe, known, valued, and inspired from the moment they walk through our doors. For many of our youngest learners, this school year will be filled with exciting "firsts"—first classrooms, first friendships, first books, first discoveries, and first big accomplishments. We are committed to creating a joyful environment where curiosity is celebrated, confidence is nurtured, and every child believes they can achieve great things.
We know that a child's greatest success happens when school and families work together. Your partnership, encouragement, and involvement make an incredible difference. Together, we will help our students develop not only strong academic skills but also the confidence, resilience, kindness, and character they need to become lifelong learners.
I invite you to join me for a Parent Meet & Greet on Monday, August 24, 2026, from 3:00-4:00 p.m. outside the school. Please stop by to say hello, meet members of our school community, and enjoy a popsicle with us as we celebrate the beginning of a wonderful year.
You will also see me throughout the week of August 24 welcoming students and families as we prepare for opening day. Our first day of school is Tuesday, August 25, 2026, and I cannot wait to greet our students with smiles, encouragement, and excitement as we begin this new journey together.
Throughout the year, you will receive a monthly family newsletter/video highlighting important dates, school events, celebrations, and resources to help keep your family connected. Please also mark your calendars for our Back-to-School Night on Thursday, September 3, 2026, from 3:30-4:30 p.m. We look forward to opening our doors, sharing our classrooms, and celebrating the learning that will take place this year.
One of the most important gifts you can give your child is the gift of daily attendance. Every school day provides opportunities to build friendships, strengthen reading and math skills, solve problems, explore new ideas, and develop confidence. Consistent attendance helps children establish routines, feel connected to their classroom community, and experience the joy of learning every day. Unless your child is ill, we encourage every student to be present and ready to learn.
Thank you for entrusting us with your child's academic, social, and emotional growth. We are honored to be part of their educational journey. Together, we will create a school where every child feels they belong, every family feels welcomed, and every student is empowered to reach their fullest potential.
This year, we will learn together, celebrate together, and grow together. I look forward to meeting each of you and making the 2026–2027 school year one filled with unforgettable memories, meaningful learning, and extraordinary success.
With excitement and appreciation,
Amy Green
Interim Principal
Pascual-Ledoux Academy
