Interim Principal

Message from East Hill Principal-May 19, 2026

We have had a very busy and productive couple of weeks here at East Hill. First, I want to share a sincere thank you to our PTA for everything they did to honor our staff during Teacher Appreciation Week. The snacks and kind gestures really meant a lot to our teachers and made the week feel special.

We also want to recognize our 3rd and 4th graders for their hard work on the Spring Concert. It was great to see our 4th-grade band and orchestra students perform, and our combined 3rd and 4th-grade chorus did an excellent job with their program. It is clear that these students have put in a lot of practice time, and it showed in their performance.

Beyond the music, we recently welcomed a group of West Genesee High School students who spent the morning reading to our Kindergarten and 1st-grade classes. Before their visits, the high school students carefully selected grade-level-appropriate books and dedicated time to preparing and practicing. The students served as positive role models. Thank you to everyone who participated in creating this meaningful experience. It was a unique opportunity to connect our youngest and oldests students through the joy of reading. We are looking forward to a strong finish to the school year and appreciate your continued support at home.

Sincerely,

Rob


Message from East Hill Principal-May 5, 2026

Dear East Hill Elementary School Families,

My name is Robert Leo, and I am writing to introduce myself as the Interim Principal at East Hill Elementary School, serving in this role until the end of the 2025-26 school year.

I want to extend my deepest thanks to Susan Meskos for her many years of service as Principal and wish her well on her retirement. I owe her a debt of gratitude for her leadership and for setting the stage for a successful end of the school year.

As many of you may already know, I have had the privilege of stepping in periodically over the years to lead East Hill and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to do so again. I am committed to supporting our dedicated and passionate team of educators who work tirelessly for the benefit of our students. It has been an absolute joy getting to know the students at East Hill, and I look forward to leading the school through the remainder of this year.

Sincerely,

Rob
