Principal's Message
Jonathan M. Kozlak, Principal
Dear Black Rock School Community,
Happy New Year! We’re having a great school year so far and eagerly look forward to the second half of the year. Staff and students have returned from winter vacation rested, rejuvenated, and ready share their kindness and talents!
We work every day to improve instruction to lead our students in becoming collaborative problem solvers. Our character initiatives are now woven into the fabric of our school as well. We continue many robust traditions, such as family literacy nights and our Holiday Singalong. We would like to thank our parent community and the Thomaston PTA for supporting our programs!
Each week, we communicate with our parent community with important school information and updates on our programs and offerings. I welcome the opportunity to communicate with all community members regarding your questions, concerns, or suggestions on how we can best serve the children of Thomaston.
Sincerely,
Jonathan M. Kozlak
Principal
