Speaker Don Scott, the first Black Speaker of the House of Delegates in Virginia’s history!

As Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. declared, “Faith is taking the first step even when you can’t see the whole staircase.” As an educator and leader, I am faithful that our next generation of leaders will lead us to a society of unity, citizenship, and compassion.

Hello Swansboro Caregivers, We're excited to kick off our VA Reads One Book program on Wednesday, March 5th, 2025, featuring "The Lemonade War" by Jacqueline Davies. We invite all students to participate by wearing YELLOW on this special day! Richmond Public Schools

Pi Day was a success! Thank you to our math department for the educational activities and excitement they provided. Students also had the opportunity pie faculty members! 🥧

This is what it looks like when the school squeezes into a good book. Literacy is the foundation of all things. I am grateful to lead the learning of these little scholars! 🍋📚 #LemonadeWar”

We are delighted to celebrate our two students who won our Attendance Raffle! Your consistent presence has earned you these fantastic bikes and builds the foundation for your academic success. Keep pedaling toward success! Jason Kamras

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Paq’s Kitchen RVA for brightening our day with an incredible brunch for staff during Teacher Appreciation Week! We left with full bellies and full hearts. Local businesses like yours make our community special. We appreciate your kindness and support!

Every day, I’m reminded that authentic leadership happens in the small moments. The support & belief we show in each child’s potential make all the difference. Thank you to our entire educational circle, including parents, teachers, community stakeholders, & district leaders.

When we come together across different backgrounds and experiences, we create something beautiful. Unity doesn’t mean we’re all the same, it means we choose to stand together, learn from each other, and build a stronger community!

🌟🍎 We’re kicking off the school year by shining a spotlight on our Teachers of the Week! 🌟 These incredible educators went above and beyond during the very first week of school showing true excellence, dedication, and heart. We love you here! 🐬

Welcome Back, Our dedicated Swansboro team, wearing burgundy, is ready and energized to make this year exceptional for children at Swansboro Elementary: “Where Scholars Are Born, and Academic Legends Are Made!” We are honored to partner with you in your child’s journey!

This is what legacy looks like. Our Back 2 School Night with these phenomenal young men from Virginia State University’s School of Education brought VSU founder Alfred W. Harris’s vision to life, of wanting a place where ALL may go and drink from the fountain of knowledge.

Today we surprised every teacher with their own laminator, laminating sheets, and an additional classroom sharpener because we believe investing in the little things empowers our educators to put their best foot forward!

With the uncertainties and division occurring in society, some of my amazing staff and stakeholders came together to send one clear message to our students, caregivers, and individuals living in Richmond metro region. WE LOVE YOU HERE! ❤️ Swansboro Elementary School #WeLoveYouHere

This is my why! While attending a routine visit, I ran into one of my former students from many, many years ago, a 7th grader I had taught. This young lady is now in the dentistry field. To hear her tell others about the impact I made as a teacher was truly heartwarming!

Paws for Reading at Swansboro! 🐾📚 We’re so grateful for our special reading companion, Phoebe, who is the official Reading Buddy at Swansboro Elementary, and continues to help our students fall in love with reading! There’s something magical about reading with a furry friend!
