Administration

As Principal, let me welcome you to the Carlisle Elementary website. As I enter the doors each day, our students, staff and community make me ever mindful of how honored and privileged I am to be the Carlisle Principal.

Children are our top priority. The entire Carlisle family strives to provide a warm, positive, safe and nurturing environment where all students are supported in reaching their personal best. By providing a strong academic program while developing responsible and respectful citizens, we give our students the necessary tools to be successful in the 21st century and beyond.

It truly does take a village to raise a child. This is why we value the partnerships formed between students, staff, and community. We are very fortunate to have a supportive and active PTA, caring and involved parents, and an experienced and dedicated staff.

As Carlisle Coyotes, our goal is for every child to soar into the future, prepared to succeed at whatever he or she may endeavor to achieve. We are proud to be called Carlisle Coyotes.
