Message from the Principal
Welcome to Ida Nason Aronica Elementary! We believe that a child’s success is built on a strong partnership between home and school. While we are committed to providing a nurturing and challenging learning environment here at school, your active participation at home is the final piece of the puzzle.
To help your child reach their full potential, we encourage simple but powerful habits: establishing a consistent homework routine in a quiet space, reading together for 15–20 minutes daily, and ensuring they arrive well-rested and nourished. By limiting screen time and celebrating your child’s hard work and progress rather than just their grades, we can foster a true love of learning together.
Open communication is key to this journey. Please stay in touch with us through ParentSquare to collaborate on your child’s growth. We are honored to work alongside you and are always here to support your family.
