Principal's Message

WELCOME TO THE 2026-2027 DICKINSFIELD SCHOOL YEAR! BIENVENUE À DICKINSFIELD!

Dear Dickinsfield Students, Families, and Community Members,

Welcome to another exciting school year at Dickinsfield School! I hope your summer was filled with opportunities to rest, reconnect, and make lasting memories with family and friends. As we prepare to welcome students back into our classrooms, I am filled with excitement and optimism for the year ahead.

At Dickinsfield, we believe that every student deserves more than an education—they deserve a community where they feel valued, challenged, and inspired. Our vision is simple yet powerful:

100% of our students will know they belong, believe in their potential, and leave ready for success.

These three words—Belong. Believe. Become.—will guide everything we do this year.

We want every student to know that they belong. From the moment they walk through our doors, we strive to create a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment where every student feels seen, respected, and connected. We know that students learn best when they feel they are part of a caring community.

We want every student to believe in their potential. Through meaningful relationships, engaging learning experiences, and high expectations supported by caring adults, we help students discover their strengths, develop confidence, and recognize that they are capable of achieving more than they ever imagined.

Finally, we want every student to become ready for success. Whether students are enrolled in our Regular Program, French Immersion, Strategies, or Connections, we are committed to providing high-quality learning experiences that prepare them academically, socially, and emotionally for the opportunities that lie ahead. A strong foundation in literacy and numeracy, combined with opportunities to explore interests, build leadership skills, and develop resilience, will help every student leave Dickinsfield ready for their next chapter.

We know that achieving this vision is only possible when schools, families, and our community work together. Families are a child's first and most important teachers, and we are grateful for the trust you place in us. Together, we can create an environment where every child feels supported, encouraged, and empowered to thrive.

Whether you are returning to Dickinsfield or joining our school community for the first time, know that you are always welcome here. My door is always open, and I look forward to partnering with you throughout the year as we celebrate successes, overcome challenges, and help every student grow.

Thank you for choosing Dickinsfield School. I look forward to an incredible year together.

Sincerely,

Charney Erickson, Principal
