Principal's Welcome Message

Welcome to a New School Year at Lord Stirling Community!

I’m so excited to welcome all of our students and families to another fantastic year of learning and growth. As your principal, it’s an honor to serve this amazing community.

Last year, we made wonderful progress in Mathematics and saw a big drop in Chronic Absenteeism—thank you to everyone who made that possible! This year, we’re turning our focus to English Language Arts with our new Lord Stirling Reads campaign. Students will dive into exciting stories, practicing reading, reflecting, and exploring new worlds through books.

At the heart of everything we do are our FRRS values: Family, Responsibility, Respect, and Safety. Family comes first because we know our school is your child’s home away from home. These guiding principles help us all—students, staff, and families—work together to create a safe, respectful, and supportive community where every child can succeed.

Families, we invite you to join us with nightly reading time to help your child’s imagination soar and support their learning journey.

Here’s to a joyful, inspiring year ahead!

With gratitude,

Kevin Jarido, M.P.A., Ed.S.

Principal, 

Lord Stirling Community School
