The hallways are buzzing, the classrooms are sparkling, and the Haven Bay Elementary Herons are ready to take flight for an extraordinary 2026-2027 school year! As our wonderful families and community members walk through the doors, there is an unmistakable energy in the air—one filled with enthusiasm, fresh opportunities, and a shared dedication to helping every single student spread their wings and reach new heights.

This year, Haven Bay is thrilled to expand our outstanding team of educators and leaders with four fantastic new additions. Joining our leadership team is Monica Widdison, who steps into the role of Administrative Apprentice to help guide our school’s vision and support our community. In the upper elementary grades, learning will be engaging and dynamic thanks to Abby Reagan, who brings her talents to the Third Grade team, and Kenna Coburn, who is ready to inspire our leaders in Fourth Grade. Additionally, Chloe Casto joins our Special Education department, bringing a passion for inclusive learning and ensuring every Heron receives the tailored support they need to thrive.

With these exceptional professionals on board alongside our returning faculty, Haven Bay Elementary continues to strengthen its commitment to academic excellence, creative thinking, and a nurturing environment. It takes a dedicated flock to build a community this strong, and we cannot wait to see all the incredible achievements, friendships, and growth that unfold over the coming months. Welcome back, Herons—let's make this our best year yet!
