Dear Families,
Welcome to a new school year! The Vincent M. Igo School is a student-centered neighborhood school with talented children, dedicated faculty and staff, and an involved parent community. Igo radiates a strong home-school connection. Our school is home to approximately four hundred students and is the largest elementary school in the Foxborough Public Schools. The faculty and staff work hard each day to provide all students with a challenging and high-quality educational experience. We believe that by working together as partners in education, we can ensure that your children’s elementary experience is as exciting, rewarding and productive as possible.
The Igo School has developed a tradition and culture of high expectations for both academics and behavior. It is our belief that every child can learn. We instill an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity, culture, and all learning styles. The invested partnerships established between the students, teachers and parents enhances students’ learning and development. We strive to stimulate all children’s intellectual curiosity and love of learning. In the process of acquiring skills and knowledge, we encourage students to ask questions, take risks and be willing to make mistakes in their quest for greater understanding. We work to create a climate based on caring relationships that communicate possibilities and hope. The challenges facing our students require problem solving, communication, and teamwork in order to achieve success. Each day provides valuable opportunities for our students to learn and grow.
The strength of our school depends upon the cooperation and effort of teachers and parents in the educational process. Research, experience and commonsense confirms that a strong home/school relationship is vital to a child’s success. We take pride in the educational programs offered to students and believe that every child is special and capable of learning. We are proud of our school and invite you to be involved at all levels!
Sincerely,
Danielle A. Morrissey
Your Principal
