Happy Principal Appreciation Month!

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all that you do for our children and our school community. Your leadership, dedication, and willingness to support your students and families truly make a difference.

We know that being a principal comes with many responsibilities, and your hard work does not go unnoticed. Thank you for showing up each day, leading with care, and helping create a school where our children can learn and grow.

Your efforts are appreciated more than you know. Thank you for all you do!🙏🏽

Warmly,

Thank you for protecting our babies & standing up for our teachers. Asiaya also thanks you for allowing students to experience other parts of life through field trips & school activities.

There are many principals in our county, but none compare to you.

We appreciate & thank you!

I just want to say, thank you for being so loving, honest and beautiful, not only towards my son but to all of the students at BDF. I adored you as a VP and I adore you as a Principal. As my son transitions on to high school,we will surely miss you. But, I know you'll always be there if we should have questions etc because that's who you are. We love and appreciate you!! Happy Principals Month!!!!!🥰💕. Love, Mrs. Anderson-Dickens

It’s hard to believe that I’ve known you for over a decade. I first got to know you through my boys when they attended the school, and now, all these years later, my daughter has been blessed to have you in her life since kindergarten.

That says a lot about the kind of principal and person you are. You have been a familiar and trusted face throughout so many years and so many chapters of my children’s lives. Watching my boys grow and now watching my daughter grow has made me especially grateful for the relationship and connection we’ve built over the years.

Thank you for your dedication, your transparency, and for always being someone I can appreciate and respect. Thank you for all that you do and for being such a wonderful and safe part of my children’s school experience.

And now that we’ve gotten all sentimental…I need you to keep sprinkling a little of that Hogue magic on Chris at MSU😂—let’s keep him headed in the right direction…you already know I had to throw that in there!

For your faithfulness, expertise and experience, my family and I thank you immensely! The Miles-Proctor family

I just wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for you and the leadership you provide at Benjamin D. Foulois Creative and Performing Arts Academy.

As a parent of a new student, I truly appreciate the welcoming and supportive environment you help create for the students and families.

I am grateful to have my child attend a school where creativity, talent, and a love for the performing arts can continue to grow. Your dedication to the students and the school does not go unnoticed.

Thank you for all that you do to lead, encourage, and support our children.

Wishing you a very happy National Principal’s Month you are appreciated! ❤️

Thank you for cultivating an environment where learning, growing, and transition can coexist! Your students feel seen and heard. During these difficult times you give our BABIES (in your words) a sense of belonging and being. Your leadership is unmatched. Your commitment is present. And your engagement is a work of art. We thank you for the peace of mind you give us knowing we can send our kids to school and they will continue to return to us smarter and stronger. From 2nd grade through now 6th we’ve always felt informed and included in our son’s learning experience and for that and so much more we say thank you!

I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the kindness, patience, compassion, and continuous support you have shown my son. As a parent, it means so much to know that you’ve created a space for my child where he has people outside of the comforts of home who not only teaches but also takes the time to understand, encourage, and support him along the way.

Your understanding and willingness to show patience, even during challenging moments, have not gone unnoticed. The compassion you demonstrate and the effort you put into helping my son feel supported and meeting him with grace, while continuing to encourage his growth makes a meaningful difference in his life.

Thank you for all that you do.

With heartfelt appreciation,

We know that if there is ever a need, question, or concern, Principal Hogue and her excellent team of educators are just an email, phone call, or Class Dojo message away.

We are so grateful!
