The Viking Compass

Dear Princeton Caregivers,

Thank you for welcoming me into my role this school year. I have enjoyed meeting many of you and I hope over time to meet more of you all who I haven’t yet met.

In the last two months of the school year, many of us here at Princeton are focusing on completing our tasks for the school year and doing some planning ahead for next school year. Looking ahead, my most important question is: How can I plan ahead to better serve you next school year? First, I want to be sure you know about a few things, then I want you to please tell me what I should add or improve next year.

1. Starting in September, each month has a newsletter with tips and links. You can look back at previous topics here:

2. A Facebook page was created to share resources from the community. It can be found using the page name Princeton City Schools Parent Mentor:

3. Caregiver support groups were launched in March, with 2 virtual and 1 in-person option each month. The remaining meetings are:

~4/17/24 In-Person from 9:30-10:30am in the Evendale Room at Princeton Administration Center

3900 Cottingham Drive Cincinnati, OH 45241

~5/1/24 Virtual/Zoom 10-11am (email cakorte@vikingmail.org for link)

~5/15/24 In-Person from 9:30-10:30am in the Evendale Room at Princeton Administration Center 3900 Cottingham Drive Cincinnati, OH 45241

4. Finally, so that you can access information any time of day, the website has been updated with all kinds of information for you. I hope anyone looking for information, rules, resources, and support can find it there. Thank you to Tish Jones, Princeton’s amazing Media Network Assistant, for all her design work and technical expertise.
