I am writing to inform you of several staff additions since school closed for the year.
Deena Grossman will join our staff as our new music teacher, replacing Suzanne Parker who is out in leave until the end of this year.

Emily Grant-Molina, scheduled to teach 4th-8th grade Spanish at Skyline this year has decided to take a full time position at West Sylvan School, and as a result I am pleased to report that Jorge Bonilla will be teaching Spanish in room 203 to our 4th - 8th graders. Jorge joins us from California by way of Costa Rica. He has a tremendous wealth of experience and will be a great addition to the staff.

Stephanie Cox has been hired as a .4 counselor. This is a welcome addition to Skyline as we have not had a counselor in quite some time. She will be working two days a week helping our students to build and develop positive pro-social skills. She also joins us from California, and has experience working with both elementary and middle school students.

I am happy to report that we have found our final member of the 6-8th grade team. Paul Mastin has been hired to teach math and share in the duties of teaching language arts. Paul joins us after teaching middle school math in Beaverton. He is excited about joining the Skyline team, and we are lucky to have him.

I am confident that our new staff additions will help us to have an exceptional school year.
