Greetings Ocoee Elementary School Families,

 

Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year.  Thank you for choosing Ocoee Elementary. I am thrilled to welcome all of our new and returning students and families back to school.  It is a privilege to serve as principal of such a special school and community. As I begin my first year as principal of Ocoee Elementary, I am energized and committed to serving our students, families, teachers and staff with excellence and care.   

Our theme for the 2026–2027 school year is “Cardinals IGNITE.” At Ocoee Elementary, IGNITE represents our commitment to Integrity, Growth, Navigating Challenges, Including Everyone, Taking Flight, and Elevating Excellence.

We believe every child has unlimited potential to learn, grow, and succeed. This year, our goal is to ignite a passion for learning by increasing students' academic achievement and social-emotional growth through engaging instruction, strong relationships, and a culture that celebrates perseverance, views mistakes as opportunities to learn, and empowers every student to take flight toward success.  

The teachers and staff at Ocoee Elementary are committed to ensuring every student graduates prepared for a successful future.   We will accomplish this by setting high expectations for student learning and providing high-quality instruction.  We will remain aggressive in our approach to learning by providing an inclusive, rigorous learning environment while implementing best practices in academics and health and safety.  Mr. Thomas and I are humbled to serve as your leaders, and we ask each of you to embrace this theme as we enter the new school year.  

Student success is based on a partnership between home and school. We appreciate the support you provide your children at home in helping them meet their learning goals. Please stay connected and informed by visiting our school website, connecting to Parent Square and attending our parent engagement learning opportunities. Please join PTA, SAC and/or become a school volunteer through our ADDitions program. With your support, we will ignite the potential in every Cardinal, empowering each student to grow, achieve, and soar to new heights. 

We are privileged to have you as a part of the Ocoee Elementary School family. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to a great year.

Sincerely, 

Cicely P. Marks, Ed.S

Principal
