Dear Union Center Elementary Families,
I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new principal of Union Center Elementary. This marks my 29th year as an educator and my 5th year as a principal. Throughout my career, I've had the pleasure of teaching a variety of subjects and grades, including Reading Resource, 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. Each experience has shaped my understanding and approach to education, and I am excited to bring my skills and enthusiasm to our school community.
I am deeply committed to supporting the staff, students, and families of Union Center Elementary. My goal is to foster a positive and inclusive school culture where everyone feels heard, valued, and essential to our school's success. Together, we will work towards providing the best possible educational experience for our students.
On a personal note, I would like to share a bit about my family. I have two wonderful sons, Evan and Ryan. Evan is currently serving in the Navy as a surface sonar technician, and Ryan is pursuing a career in aviation mechanics. Additionally, I have a stepson, Jack, who works for a statistics company, and a stepdaughter, Sara, who is about to begin her sophomore year at Michigan State University.
I am genuinely looking forward to getting to know each of you and embarking on this exciting journey together. Let's make this year a fantastic one for Union Center Elementary!
Warm regards,
Jenna Klein
Principal, Union Center Elementary
