Meet Our New Principal

My name is Chantale Packard, and it is with great excitement I write this letter to introduce myself as the newly appointed Principal of South Bay Elementary! I have worked in North Thurston Public Schools since 2012 as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, LAP Interventionist and for the last 3 years as an Assistant Principal. As an educator I believe that ALL students can successful, and I am committed to creating a learning environment where students are supported both emotionally and academically in order to reach their full potential. I value strong, collaborative relationships with families, staff and community partners and I am looking forward to serving the South Bay community for years to come. I can’t wait to meet all of you in the coming weeks and am excited to work with your family this school year. Go Bruins!
