Principal's Message
It is with great pride and excitement that I write this letter of introduction to you as the Principal of M. Robert Adkison Elementary. I am honored to lead a school with such student pride, staff energy, and community support. Last year included many opportunities for interaction between parents, teachers and students. We hope to continue this genuine partnership between all stakeholders to provide the best possible academic experience for our students. I look forward to fostering these relationships and working with teachers and staff to provide a world-class educational experience for each child.

Along with teachers and staff, we will continue the legacy of success established at Adkison. Academics and focus on instruction and student learning will continue to be the “Main Thing.” District-issued Chromebook devices will remain in place to train our students for future careers involving technology. Family engagement and maintaining a healthy, safe environment for all of our students and families is of high priority. District provided services will be available for social and emotional support for students at no-charge to families. 

Student attendance is a key ingredient to success in school. Students must attend school on-time consistently in order to receive the quality education they deserve. Students will be rewarded for positive attendance throughout the year. Our school cafeteria opens at 7:15 am and all students receive free breakfast in the morning. Students are supervised in the cafeteria during this time. School begins at 8:10 am. Please consider dropping students off before 8:00 am to avoid traffic. Call in all absences when your student will not be at school.
