Big News! Binkley is getting a new principal! We're sad to see Mrs. Lister go, but we're happy to welcome Mrs. Kjaer.
Here's a letter from Mrs. Kjaer:
Dear Binkley Families,
Hello! My name is Hilary Kjaer. It is with great excitement that I introduce myself as Binkley’s new principal. I have been a teacher in Rincon Valley for 19 years, spending 16 of those as a teacher at Binkley. For the last three years, I have served as the English Learner Coordinator and Consulting Teacher, supporting teachers throughout the district with improving instruction and academic achievement for all students.
The Binkley community is one that I hold very near and dear to my heart. Having had my own two daughters spend their elementary years here as students, I know first-hand what an amazing staff and family network we have. I am beyond thrilled to be returning to Binkley to serve and give back to the community that helped mold me into the teacher and leader that I am today.
My first day will be Monday, September 17. However, I will be attending Binkley’s Welcome Back Party this Friday, September 14 from 6-9 p.m. I hope you will join me as we kick off the new school year together. Please come out and introduce yourself. I look forward to meeting you and your children!
Warmly,
Hilary Kjaer
