Welcome to John Welsh Elementary School!


Welsh in the News!

Check out the wonderful things that have been happening at Welsh! We are excited to continue to expose our children to meaningful leaders, experiences, and resources. 

John Welsh Vision

We challenge the fundamental notion of education beyond the four walls of our school. We believe that the success of our students is predicated on the cultivation of an equitable and liberated community, and therefore, we strive to do whatever it takes to not only remove barriers and increase access for our children but also enable our community to find their individual and collective voice and power.
 

John Welsh Mission

By working together cooperatively, the staff, students, parents, and community will respect each other and work to their fullest potential to recognize John Welsh students’ special needs and demands.  These include but are not limited to experiencing success, recognition for accomplishments, and feeling supported, accepted, and worthy.  By being committed to this responsibility that we all share, the values of achievement, perseverance, trust, pride, and diversity will be prevalent and conducive to a nurturing, social, and learning environment at the John Welsh Elementary School.
 

John Welsh Core Values

  • We do whatever it takes for our children.
  • We believe in and celebrate all of our children.
  • We are constantly learning, growing, and getting better.

John Welsh School-wide PBIS Expectations

Our Positive Behavior and Intervention Support System at John Welsh Elementary has the following expectations that are addressed daily throughout our building:

  • Be Safe
  • Be Caring
  • Be Respectful
  • Be Responsible


Welcome to the 2025-2026 School Year!
 
This will be our third consecutive year prioritizing Attendance, Foundational Skills, Show Pride, and Exposure because our data proves that our plan is working and we are laser-focused on accelerating learning at Welsh. As the African proverb says, “It takes a village to raise a child,” and we are eager to partner with families and the community to maintain a safe and supportive school where we are fully committed to working together for excellence in education for every student. Let’s start strong and finish even stronger together!
 
Yours in partnership,
Principal Green & Assistant Principal Fay
