Principal's Page
Welcome to Heyworth Elementary school!
I have the privilege of serving as the principal at our elementary building which serves grades Pre-K through 6th grade. Serving the families and community in which I live is a dream come true, and I look forward to working hard to create a culture in which every student feels safe and supported and is given the resources needed to be successful. Heyworth Elementary has an amazing team of teachers and staff members who care deeply about children and works hard to ensure their needs are met. Our educational team deeply appreciates the support we receive from the community and recognizes that this support is essential to our ability to best serve our students. I look forward to continuing to serve our Heyworth families as the Elementary School principal. Parents and community members are always welcome to share any ideas, concerns, or compliments! Please do not hesitate to reach out at any time.
Sincerely,
Justin Steve
