Principal's Message

Welcome to William Orr Elementary!

I’m so glad you’ve taken the time to visit our website and learn more about our school. It’s truly an honor to be part of a community filled with curious, hardworking students, dedicated teachers and staff, and incredibly supportive families.

 

At Orr, we believe every child can learn, grow, and thrive. We’re committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where all students feel seen, valued, and supported. Our goal is to ensure that every child—regardless of background, language, or ability—has access to high-quality learning experiences that help them succeed.

 

We’re proud to offer the district's only Dual Immersion program, where students develop bilingualism and biliteracy in English and Spanish. This program celebrates language, culture, and diversity, while also preparing students to be confident, compassionate, and globally-minded citizens.

 

We know that student success is a shared effort. Whether you are a returning family or new to our school, we invite you to stay connected, get involved, and join us in making William Orr a place where every child can thrive.

 

Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. We are excited about the journey ahead and look forward to a wonderful school year together!

 

Warmly,

Rebecca Casillas
Principal, William Orr Elementary
