From the Principal’s Desk

 

Dear Robert Morris Family,

I hope your summer was filled with lots of fun and personal family time. As I enter my sixth year here at Robert Morris School, I am excited about the continuous possibilities for growth and impact. I continue to be inspired by the dedication of the Robert Morris staff, students and community. As we reflect upon our data from the previous school year, we have some areas to celebrate and some areas for improvement. Our Student Attendance increased this year! Remember, your child learns best when they’re in school. Overall, we grew in Math proficiency and we’ll need to refocus our priorities for the Reading curriculum introduced last year. There will be a new and exciting Science curriculum in all of our classrooms this year! We look forward to all students engaging in hands-on activities that relate to the real world in which we live.hands-on activities for an interactive learning experience.

As our enrollment continues to grow, this year brings us more students, classrooms and staff! Thank you for your feedback on the surveys at the end of last year. We hear you and we are looking for ways to better engage our parents.

Fiesta Schoolyards has completed the transformation of half of our schoolyard so that students can have a fun and attractive outdoor experience. (We needed to preserve the other half of the yard for our trash pick ups and parking for staff during inclement weather.) We will continue our partnerships with programs such as The Wagner Free Institute of Science, the Community College of Philadelphia and St. Joe’s University.

We invite our families and school community to support us by joining our School Advisory Council (SAC), signing up to be a volunteer, and donating items for our students and/or staff as needed. Lastly, we will continue to align our school goals with the District’s Goals and Guardrails to ensure a successful 2025/2026 school year!

Yours in partnership,

Tameron Dancy, Principal
