Assistant Principal

Dear Peyton Students, Staff and Families,

I am very excited to be a part of the Peyton family! The Peyton community has been very kind to me during my 17-years of public service at Peyton.

As a school community, we’ve been through so much together, but have always kept focus on our most important priority: serving the academic and social-emotional needs of our student body. With Parental support, our Teachers & Staff have done a tremendous job of consistently achieving this student-centered objective. This objective is reinforced by our school-wide commitment of establishing and sustaining a learning environment where ALL students feel Safe, Kind & Productive.

Our positive experiences at Peyton are strengthened by the special relationships and connections between our students, staff & parents.  I am optimistic that the special bonds of friendship & collaboration we form this school-year will ignite the driving force of positive experiences felt by our community for generations to come.

As a school-community, how we communicate and support each other this year may very well impact the future trajectory of our students. Our strong connections with each other will ultimately benefit our students.

Let us therefore strive together in making this school-year a memorable one.

In public service and optimism,

Dr. Naheem Akhtar
Assistant Principal
Peyton Elementary School
