Dear Quatama Families,

It is with great pride and excitement that I am Principal of Quatama Elementary School. As I move into my first year at Quatama, I  feel blessed to be a part of such a strong child focused community. I am eager to begin the 2018-19 school year - it is sure to be special!

Our nationally recognized STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art & Math) program  creates a unique opportunity for each learner. We strive to bring relevant, real world experiences to each student, challenging them to think deeply about critical issues.  We work in close partnership with the Right Brain Initiative, Portland Metro STEM hub, the Oregon Zoo and many other community organizations. We have a strong support network-that network includes our families. Thank you for all the time and effort you put in and continue to invest, in making Quatama great! The Quatama staff are passionate, dedicated educators who set high standards of achievement so our kids can be successful. Good attendace is critical to that success, please help to support our program with on time daily attendance. We don't want to miss an opportunity to learn alongside your child. 

Thank you for trusting us. If you have questions or concerns that arise at any time, please do not hesitate to give your child’s teacher or me a call. Family support is a critical link to student achievement. We want to hear from you!

In partnership & service, 

Yolanda Coleman
