Mrs. Enna Dancy-Henderson
👋 Welcome, Twillman Families!
My name is Enna Dancy, and I am honored to serve as the Principal of Twillman Elementary. It is a privilege to lead such a vibrant community of scholars, educators, and families who are deeply committed to ensuring that every child thrives.
As an educational leader, my vision is to create a school where all students are safe, supported, and challenged to reach their fullest potential. Guided by our mission and core values, I believe in building strong relationships, fostering curiosity, and empowering both students and staff to grow.
This year, our focus will be on:
-
Strengthening our positive school culture through respect, inclusion, and high expectations.
-
Ensuring academic excellence by providing rigorous, engaging instruction for every learner, including our Montessori, General Education, EL, and SSD scholars.
-
Partnering with families and the community to support the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally.
I look forward to working alongside you to make Twillman Montessori a place where every student can truly ROAR: Respectful, Independent, Curious, Community, Keep Trying, Fair.
Thank you for trusting us with your children’s education. Together, we will make this a year of growth, achievement, and joy.
With gratitude and excitement,
Principal Enna Dancy 🐯
