Principal's Message

Dear Peters 4-6 Families,

I am excited to introduce myself as the new principal at Peters 4-6 Elementary.  I come into this position with 16 years of experience in GGUSD as a classroom teacher at Doig Intermediate, district teacher on special assignment, and most recently the assistant principal at Walton Intermediate.  Having spent most of my career at Doig and Walton, this neighborhood feels like home to me, and I am honored to be able to join the fantastic team at Peters 4-6 and continue to serve this amazing community.

This summer I spent time with former principal, Dr. Yoon, getting up to speed with the great work that has been happening at Peters 4-6, attended the AVID conference with several Peters 4-6 teachers, which focused on best teaching practices for supporting students towards achieving their college and career dreams, and worked with teachers to put on a Summer Bridge program on campus.  Through it all, I have been impressed with the professionalism and care that our teachers and staff provide for every student.  You can rest assured that your students are in good hands at Peters 4-6 Elementary. 

I firmly believe a good education is the key to lifelong success, and students reach their highest potential when the school and home work together to develop both academic and personal skills in our students.  Throughout the year, we will use this website, ParentSquare messages, and our Instagram account to keep you up to date on what is happening at our school.  I also invite you to participate in our PTO and attend or volunteer at our parent meetings and community events. 

I look forward to getting to know you and your students as we work together to support them on their educational journey.  Go Panthers!

Sincerely,

Sean Dishong
