The Principal's Corner

 

Dear Dunbar School Community,

I am proud to emphasize that the dedicated staff at Dunbar School upholds rigorous standards both within the classroom and throughout our campus. Together, we form a community of independent learners committed to fostering academic excellence.

In our pursuit of educational excellence, we stand firm in maintaining high expectations for our students. Lowering the bar is not an option, as we understand the importance of preparing our students for a global stage. Our goal is not merely for our students to compete locally in East St. Louis or Illinois, but to equip them with the skills and knowledge to compete on a global scale.

By maintaining these high standards, we ensure that our students are well-prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you for being an essential part of our community and for your ongoing support in our collective commitment to educational excellence.

Warm regards,

Tiffani Brown, Principal
