Dear Students and Families,

I am incredibly honored and excited to join the Norwood Public School community as your new principal for the Prek-Grade 4 program. I feel very fortunate to be a part of this school and to support the students and families of such an amazing and close knit community.

First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for the warm welcome I have received from students, faculty, and staff since my arrival. I am eager to work alongside each of you to continue fostering a supportive and enriching environment for the students of Norwood. 

As we embark on this new school year together, my priority is to ensure that every student within the Prek-Grade 4 program in Norwood receives a high-quality education in a safe and nurturing environment. I am committed to upholding the school’s values and I believe strongly in open communication and collaboration among all stakeholders—parents, teachers, staff, and students.

I invite each of you to partner with us in the education of your child. Your involvement, whether through volunteering, attending school events, or engaging in discussions about your child’s progress, plays a crucial role in their overall success. Together, we can empower our students to reach their fullest potential and prepare them for future challenges.

In the coming weeks, I look forward to meeting you personally and learning more about your aspirations and expectations for the lower program at Norwood Public School. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions, concerns, or ideas you may have. My door is always open.

Thank you once again for entrusting us with your child’s education. I am honored to serve as your principal and am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for our school community.

With gratitude,

Mrs. Kathleen DeRosa DeRosa

Principal, PK-Grade 4 Program
