Hello Gaines School Community!
My name is Anna Yasuhara, and I am so excited and honored to serve as the principal at Wesley Gaines Elementary School. First and foremost, I want to say how thrilled I am to be a part of such a warm, welcoming, and student-centered school. I’ve worked in education for 23 years as a classroom teacher and school administrator. I am deeply passionate about creating a nurturing school environment and am dedicated to family engagement and student success.
I aim for every student to feel seen, supported and inspired to learn and grow each day. I believe that Gaines school will provide a safe space for each student to grow academically and to build confidence, friendships and develop a life-long love of learning.
At Gaines Elementary School, I am committed to supporting our students, families and staff. I truly believe that when we work together, students succeed and thrive. I look forward to getting to know you, to listen, to learn and to support. We will build upon the great success at Gaines and we will reach new heights together!
Our school office will reopen on Monday, July 28 to support you. Please be sure to mark your calendars for our first day of school Monday, August 11! Have a great summer and GO GAINES GRIZZLIES!
