Assistant Principal's Message
Hello Phoenix Family!
I am Ms. Gonzalez, your Assistant Principal. I am delighted to extend a warm greeting to you all. I have been in education for 17 years, six of which have been right here at Flora Ridge. I’m very proud of the inclusive environment we have created and continue to foster. One where students can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
As we embark together on this new school year my goal will be to continue to support staff, students, and families in creating a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment where ALL students can thrive.
At Flora Ridge we believe that all students can SOAR and we encourage our students to participate and take advantage of the numerous opportunities available from academic programs (Avid Ambassadors, NJHS, Battle of the Books) to extracurricular activities (track, soccer, safety patrol) and to always strive for their personal best.
Parents, your involvement is crucial to our success. We value your input and look forward to working with you this year to support your child’s education.
Let’s work together to make this the best year yet! I look forward to all the adventures and memories we will make together. Let’s make it a great year!
#FLY Phoenix! #You Belong!
Sincerely,
Ana Maria Gonzalez, Assistant Principal
