Welcome to the 2025–2026 School Year!
Dear Hubert O. Sibley K-8 Academy Families,
It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome you to a new academic year at Hubert O. Sibley K-8 Academy. As a proud STArts Magnet School, we are deeply committed to a well-rounded educational experience that emphasizes the integration of Science, Technology, and the Arts. Our approach to teaching and learning is rooted in creativity, curiosity, and innovation. Students are encouraged to explore the world around them through land, sea, and space while also engaging with the Visual and Graphic Arts, fostering both intellectual and artistic growth.
Our dedicated faculty and staff implement high-impact, culturally responsive instructional strategies that promote Social Emotional Learning and academic rigor. By leveraging diverse, research-based programs, we ensure that every child receives a rich, inclusive, and engaging education.
We will continue offering monthly Parent Academy workshops designed to strengthen the home-school connection by helping families navigate the parent portal, support literacy development, and encourage academic success at home. In addition, our monthly Coffee Break Virtual Meetings with Principal Larkin will provide families with a welcoming space to stay informed, ask questions, and engage in open dialogue.
We invite and encourage you to become an active participant in your child’s education by volunteering, joining our PTA, and attending school events. Your involvement is vital in creating a supportive and vibrant school community.
Our theme for the 2025–2026 school year is “Aim High, Achieve Higher.” This theme reflects our shared commitment to setting ambitious goals, nurturing a growth mindset, and fostering an environment where students are inspired to exceed expectations academically, socially, and personally. It is a call to dream big, work hard, and support one another in the journey toward excellence.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. I look forward to a year of meaningful learning, shared successes, and unforgettable achievements.
Warm regards,
Mrs. Chandrell Larkin
Principal
Hubert O. Sibley K-8 Academy
