Mr. Thomas J. Coughlin
Elden Retiring Principal 

Summer 2024
 
Dear Elden families,
Happy Summer. This is my last newsletter. It is truly bittersweet. I am going to miss all of your children and the Elden community as a whole. Thank you all for your support over these past eight years.
 
Here are some highlights from this past month:
 

  • Golden Table winner for June: Mrs. Bach’s kindergarten class!
  • The 3 Bees winners of the popcorn party from June were Mrs. D’Andreano/Pinard’s UPK class for first place; Mrs. Jasewicz’s fourth grade class for second place; and Mrs. Kotz’s second grade class for third place!
  • The 5th grade moving up day ceremony, lunch and dance!
  • The 4th & 5th Grade Talent Show!
I’d like to welcome Ms. Fiorini, your new principal. I am so excited for her and for all of you. As many of you remember, she was our administrative intern a few years ago. She is certainly the most wonderful person to take over at Elden. She will be communicating with you over the summer. Look out for her emails.

Also, I’d like to welcome a few new staff members. We have Ms. Thayer, special education teacher in 5th grade; Ms. Mesagna, second grade teacher; Ms. Williams, speech pathologist; Mrs.Besio, kindergarten teacher; and Ms. Goodelle, third grade teacher.
Best wishes to the following staff: Mr. Gunn, TA, who will be moving on to student teaching in the fall; Mrs. Morris, TA, who has resigned from the district; and Mrs. Hagadorn, speech pathologist, who accepted a full-time position at McNamara Elementary School. We will truly miss you all.
 
A huge congratulations goes out to Mr. Rindfuss, second grade teacher, and to Mrs. Anselment, secretary, on their retirement. We certainly enjoyed our years together, especially this year. I am so happy for you both as you embark on the new parts of your lives.
 
Make sure you check your email often. We will be updating you on upcoming events. Also, check the calendar of dates on the back of the summer newsletter for things happening over the summer.


Sincerely,

Mr. Coughlin
Principal
