Welcome to SY 24-25
Message from Principal Neal
Welcome to the 2024- 2025 school year! We are thrilled to welcome our students back to school. We hope that you were able to relax and make special memories with your friends and families during the summer. Now it is time to look forward to a wonderful new school year!
Our incredible staff has been working throughout the summer to prepare classrooms and the entire building for the upcoming school year. We are grateful to our amazing custodial staff as they worked all summer getting our school in pristine shape. Our Operations and Welcome Center staff has worked tirelessly to ensure a smooth start for staff, students, and families.
In June, we said goodbye to the cottage and in July we were able to say hello to a brand new addition and a beautiful new field! We a grateful to EVERYONE who helped to make sure the new addition and the field are ready for our students tomorrow.

Deal is such a special place to learn and grow. We are proud of our beautiful school and have high expectations for each and every student. Our students are kind, compassionate, and eager to learn. Together with our dedicated teachers, we strive to make connections with students to help them feel loved, challenged, and prepared. We want to celebrate our diversity and ensure every student and family knows they belong here.
We continue to be committed to working to eliminate the predictability of student outcomes based on race, exceptionality, gender identity, zip code, physical ability, socio economic status, or language spoken at home.
Here We Grow!
