Principal's Message

Welcome to Palm Valley Elementary School. Home of the Thunderbirds!!

Dear Palm Valley Elementary Families,

It is with great excitement and pride that I welcome you to a new school year at Palm Valley Elementary School! As Principal, it is my honor to serve our incredible students, dedicated staff, supportive families, and engaged community.

Palm Valley Elementary is a cornerstone of our community, rich with history, tradition, and a commitment to fostering growth and learning for every student. This year marks an exciting milestone as we welcome 6th graders to our campus, beginning our journey towards becoming a K-8 school through a phased-in approach. To our new families joining us this year, I extend a warm welcome to our school family.

At Palm Valley, our Thunderbird staff is passionate about teaching and learning, dedicated to nurturing the whole child and preparing them for success. We believe deeply in the power of building strong relationships and ensuring that every individual who steps onto our campus feels safe, welcomed, and valued. We foster a culture of collaboration and communication among our teachers, families, and community. We recognize that a strong partnership between home and school is essential to the success of our students. We encourage parents and guardians to actively engage in their child's education, whether through volunteering, participating in school activities, or supporting academic and extracurricular endeavors.

In our inclusive environment, we celebrate the uniqueness, talents, and genius of each Thunderbird. We take pride in nurturing curiosity and igniting a passion for learning that extends beyond the classroom. Our goal is to empower our students to become leaders—on our campus, in our community, and throughout their lives.

Thank you for choosing Palm Valley. We are honored to partner with you in your child's educational journey. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me or any member of our dedicated staff with questions, concerns, or ideas.

Together, let’s make this school year one filled with growth, discovery, and achievement. Welcome to Palm Valley Elementary School, home of the Thunderbirds!

With Thunderbird Pride,

Dr. Kimberly Hill

Principal, Palm Valley Elementary
