Welcome Mr. Jacinto
Dear G.W. Hellyer Community
It is with great pleasure that I write this letter to you as the incoming principal of Hellyer Elementary School. It is truly an honor to become part of the Hellyer family and community. Even though I have only had limited interactions with the faculty and parents thus far, I can already tell that it is a unique and special place. I am incredibly excited to become a part of the community.
I come to you with 21 years of experience as an educator in the Franklin-McKinley School District. I taught physical education at Sylvandale Middle School for nine years, worked four years as a Vice Principal at Fair Middle School. (Bridges Academy) and served as Principal at Franklin Elementary for eight years.
As I get to know our building, our community and familiarize myself with the unique needs of our school. I want to connect with each of you to hear your hopes and dreams for our school. I believe wholeheartedly that every student deserves a quality education and that only happens when the school and the families work together for the best interests of our children. With that in mind, I will call on all our faculty, staff and families to work as a single team so we can best serve our children.
I am honored to have this opportunity to serve our familes and staff. My main responsibility is to support our teachers to be in the best possible position to succeed, as they will in turn put our children and families in the best possible position to succeed. I look forward to meeting each of you and please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, concerns or ideas you would like to share. Jose Jacinto

Welcome Back!
Dear Hellyer Families,
I would like to welcome you back to the 2018-2019 school year! As the new principal of Hellyer Elementary, it is an honor to become part of the Eagle Community at Hellyer and the Franklin-McKinley School District. As a product of public education, my life was deeply enhanced by my classroom teachers. Not only did they provide me with a sound foundation, but also inspired me to pursue a career in education. I have been an educator for 12 years. Most recently I was an assistant principal in the Perris Elementary School District for the last 4 years. My background also includes 8 years as a classroom teacher teaching 2nd-6th grades.

Good Luck Dr. Franks
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I am writing with news to share with you that I have accepted a position in Spokane, Washington as a Principal for Roosevelt Elementary. I want to thank each and every one of you for all your support, and for entrusting me with your children for the past few years. I am honored and feel so fortunate to have been given the opportunity to be part of the Hellyer Elementary family. I have so many wonderful memories of my time at Hellyer and I am sad to say goodbye.
During my time here, I have fostered relationships with many of you and I will cherish the memories and friendships I’ve made. Hellyer has been a very special place for me and I will miss everyone - know that my dedication to my position as your principal will continue as we transition to new leadership at Hellyer throughout the summer.
Although it’s hard to say goodbye to the parents and staff, the hardest part of leaving is saying goodbye to the children. I have grown so attached to them over the last three years. I have loved watching them grow up into amazing young people and I will treasure my memories of them all.
With much thanks and appreciation,
Dr. Laura Franks, Principal
