Dear Bartlett Elementary Families,
I m proud to serve as the principal of Bartlett Elementary. My first few years were filled with many highlights and also some very unique circumstances. Prior to coming to Bartlett, I was a principal in Holly Area Schools. I have previously taught kindergarten, first grade, and was a resource room teacher at the elementary and secondary levels. I live in Highland Township with my wife Lindsey and our two sons, Henry and Clark. I believe that strong, positive relationships are the foundation of an excellent educational experience.
My top priorities are to keep our students safe and grow each child to his/her potential. My vision for our students is to develop a community of leaders who are critical thinkers, creative problem-solvers, innovative, and contribute to the success of their community. I am passionate about empowering students to take ownership of their learning and school. I look forward to fostering an environment where students have strong connections to their classrooms and school and meaningful learning opportunities that develop a sense of purpose.
I would like to extend a warm welcome to our new families and students. The Bartlett staff and community are wonderfully supportive. They make Bartlett a great place to learn and grow!
Sincerely,
Ryan DeSana
Bartlett Elementary Principal
