Summer Office Hours

We celebrated Assistant Principal's Week April 7-11. This week we celebrate Assistant Principal Week!  Here at Stagebarn we have an Assistant Principal who is like the heart of the school, always there with a warm smile and a helping hand. They're the kind of person who knows everyone's name, listens to your concerns, and makes sure every student feels seen and supported. With a blend of kindness and authority, they make sure things run smoothly, but never without a sense of humor and a positive attitude. Whether they're guiding students through a tough moment or celebrating everyone's achievements, they make the school feel like a place where everyone belongs!

We celebrated Mr. Olson on May 1st for Principals Day! Principal Olson is the steady hand that guides our school with a perfect balance of wisdom, Khakis and Black Polos. Whether he's leading the staff, sharing a laugh with students, or offering words of encouragement, he knows how to make everyone feel valued. Known for his approachable nature and down-to-earth style, he’s always ready with advice, a high-five, or just a friendly chat in the hallway. From keeping things in order to ensuring the school day is as enjoyable as possible, Dr. Olson is the heart of our school community. Happy Principal’s Day to, Mr. Olson!

Congratulations to Mr. Nelson!
