McIntosh Elementary School

As I close out my final days as principal, my heart is overflowing with gratitude for our incredible community. Thank you to every person who poured love, support, encouragement, and blessings into our school this year in so many ways.

While I don’t have pictures of everyone who contributed, please know your kindness never went unnoticed. A special thank you to Mrs. Darlene for helping with campus beautification, even though she is not pictured. Thank you to all of the churches that supported our pantry, Timberwolf Tuesdays, and HOUSE celebrations throughout the year. Thank you to Mrs. Tolbert for helping keep our bodies full all year long with your generosity and care. A very special thank you to Dr. T for bringing STREAM to life and creating a space filled with curiosity, creativity, innovation, and hands-on learning opportunities for our students.

To everyone who worked behind the scenes — whether through donations, volunteering, encouraging words, prayers, or simply showing up to support us — thank you. Your impact mattered more than you know. Thank you especially for helping make ACAP Week and Teacher Appreciation Week such a success. Thank you to the families who joined us for Trunk or Treat in October and helped create joyful memories for our students. We were even blessed with donated televisions and countless other gifts of support.

I pray that everyone who helped in any way understands my heart, even if your picture was not posted or your name was not individually mentioned. Please know I am deeply grateful. I truly could not have done this work without your love and support.

Thank you for allowing me to serve this amazing community.

Signing out with gratitude,
Principal Johnson

Our beginning 😳 The post is about foundation … where we started… A strong foundation is the solid base built on values, relationships, and hard work that supports future growth and success. Just like construction, progress takes time, patience, and intentional effort.

The road to success is always under construction — every lesson learned, challenge faced, and milestone reached helps build something greater. Progress may not always look perfect, but every step forward matters.
