PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Welcome to Tom Matsumoto Elementary School. This school has established a tradition of excellence. Tom Matsumoto Elementary School, a 2006 California Distinguished School and a 2004 National Blue Ribbon school, is committed to continually improving our programs that embrace the Evergreen School District's Standards. The school continues to refine our instructional program to meet the needs of all our students. Many of our teachers have participated in Step Up to Writing workshops. The Step Up to Writing Program provides direct instructions, step-by-step guidelines, and examples of writing that model all stages of the writing process. Writing will be one of our instructional focuses this year. Our STAR test scores have remained some of the highest in the state and district.
We are committed to continually improving
our programs at Matsumoto. You have entrusted the education of
your children to us. Please know that we take the mission of educating
your children most seriously. Matsumoto students will be exposed
to a highly challenging and motivating curriculum. State-of-the-art
materials and instructional strategies will be used to meet the
needs of every child, regardless of individual differences. To
ensure the best possible learning experience for each student,
we strive to establish a close working relationship with you.
Please stay in touch with us by phone or e-mail if you have questions
for your child's teacher. A strong parent-teacher partnership
makes an unbeatable team in providing the best of all educational
environment!
