Dear St. George CCSD No. 258 Families,

Welcome!  To the students and families who have been part of the St. George family and to the new students and families, I welcome you to the family.  Yes, we are a family at St. George. It’s a special place and I’m thankful you have decided to be part of the St. George School District.  

At SG258, we believe in the power of strong partnerships—between school and home, teachers and students, and the entire community. Due to this partnership, SG258 celebrates tremendous success. 

Why Are We Successful at SG258?

 1.      Outstanding Staff

Our teachers and staff are the heart of our district. They bring passion, expertise, and a deep commitment to every child’s success. Their ability to personalize learning and build strong relationships with students sets SG258 apart.

2.      High Expectations

We set the bar high for student behavior and academic achievement while ensuring each child receives the support they need to thrive. From differentiated instruction to enrichment opportunities, our students are empowered to reach their full potential.

3.      Family and Community Involvement

We are more than a school—it's a community. Your involvement, encouragement, and trust play a vital role in our success. From volunteering and attending events to supporting learning at home, you are making a difference.

I continue to believe if we work together, keep the lines of communication open and challenge each other to be the best, then St. George Community Consolidated School District No. 258 will continue to be an outstanding and successful district.  

I look forward to working with you and your students this year and observing what successes will occur in the 2025-2026 school year.     

It’s a GREAT day to be a RAIDER!

Sincerely,

Dr. Jay P. Smith
