Principal's Corner

 

Welcome to Paso Verde School! My name is Cassandra Poole, and I am honored to continue serving as the principal of this incredible school community. As I enter my second year at Paso Verde, I remain deeply grateful for the opportunity to lead a school filled with dedicated staff, supportive families, and bright, capable scholars.

I bring with me 19 years of experience in education — from my early days as a preschool teacher to my years as an Assistant Principal at American Lakes PK-8. Now, in my second year at Paso Verde, I am more inspired than ever by our school’s mission of developing independent, globally-minded citizens.

Throughout this past year, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know many of you and witnessing the passion and care that make this community so special. My commitment to being an approachable, visible, and collaborative leader remains at the heart of my work. I truly value your thoughts, questions, and ideas, and please remember — my door is always open.

As we look ahead, I am excited to continue fostering a school environment rooted in academic rigor, critical thinking, safety, and cultural understanding. Together, we’ll keep building on the strong foundation of Paso Verde, creating new opportunities and meaningful experiences for every scholar.

Thank you for welcoming me so warmly last year and for your continued partnership as we embark on another year of growth, achievement, and shared success. Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!

Warmly,
Cassandra Poole
Principal, Paso Verde School
