A Letter From the Principal
Dear Thiriot Families,
We hope that you are having a WONDERFUL and RELAXING summer break! Mr. White, Ms. Fender, the staff, and I can’t wait to begin another school year along with the most outstanding school community. Because of your continued support, we are able to have monthly family engagement events, clubs after school, and a lot of academic success!
I couldn’t be happier to be launching my 3rd year as a principal at the BEST SCHOOL on the planet! It is such an honor and a pleasure to serve such a one of a kind community, complete with SPECTACULAR PARENTS, the best students anyone could ask for, and a staff and group of parents second to NONE. Our priority at Thiriot is to provide the HIGH-QUALITY education that our children deserve and have a great deal of fun in the process. We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for the unwavering support that you have all given us.
We are eager to build up on our successes and continue to promote a family atmosphere where students, parents, and staff all work together to provide an academically rigorous environment.

Please take the time to review all of the information provided, but as a reminder, we strongly encourage our families to walk to school or to utilize our DROP OFF ZONE to ensure the safety of children, as parking is very limited.
If you have any questions, please call the office at 702-799-2550 or come into the school and visit us. We thank you for entrusting us with your children and look forward to an exciting year of learning and enjoyment for all. Welcome aboard and fasten your seat belts as we embark on this adventure together! Get ready to make the 2025-2026 school year an educational, exciting, and enjoyable journey!
