Principal's Message

Dear Stork Elementary Families,
As Principal and Assistant Principal of Stork Elementary, we are committed to fostering a nurturing and engaging educational environment where every student can thrive. It is our honor to support both our dedicated staff and our enthusiastic learners, ensuring that each child reaches their fullest potential. We both feel deeply rooted in this community and are passionate about providing your children with an exceptional educational experience. As parents ourselves within the district, we understand the importance of a strong partnership between home and school, and are committed to working closely with you to support your child's growth and success.
At Stork, we believe in being a visible and accessible team. You'll often find us out and about on campus, connecting with students, teachers, and staff. We are dedicated to building strong relationships and a positive, supportive learning environment. Our teachers are committed to providing a strong foundation in all academic areas, while also nurturing each child's unique talents and abilities. Above all, we put kids first in every decision we make.
The safety and well-being of our students is our top priority. We maintain a safe and secure campus and utilize Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) daily. We believe in being respectful, responsible, and resourceful, and we instill these values in our students. We teach them the importance of leadership and the qualities that make a good leader, empowering them to become positive role models and future leaders in our community.
Our Stork Superstars are Respectful, Responsible and Resourceful students who are learning great habits and making great leaders.
Go Superstars!
Valerie Bires, Principal
Floyd M. Stork Elementary School
