Principal's Message

Hello WAVES Families!
 
Welcome to the 2025–26 school year at Palisades Elementary — home of the WAVES! I am honored to introduce myself as your new principal, and I’m thrilled to join this warm and vibrant school community.
 
This year, we are proud to launch our new theme: One School, One Shore, One Wave at a Time. This theme reflects our commitment to unity, shared purpose, and steady growth — together, we’ll create a wave of positive momentum that lifts every student.
 
At Palisades, we are dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every child feels seen, valued, and supported. Our core values — being Respectful, Responsible, and Ready to Learn — guide our daily actions from the classroom to the playground. These principles help us build a strong, connected school where students are empowered to learn, grow, and thrive.
 
Every student is a vital part of our Palisades family, and every student belongs here. As we move forward into this exciting school year, I look forward to partnering with you — our families, staff, and community — to ensure a joyful and enriching experience for all.
 
Thank you for your support and trust. Let’s make this year incredible — one wave at a time.
 
With gratitude,
 
Yesenia Hogancamp
Principal
Palisades Elementary
