Dear Parents and Guardians of CLV Elementary,

It is an honor to write this introduction letter to all of you as the newly appointed Elementary principal in the Cattaraugus Little Valley School District. I am eager and ready to start the important work that is essential in maintaining the safe and caring learning environment where our youngest Timberwolves continue to grow and succeed. I am thrilled to be a part of the team!

I have been a dedicated teacher for over 15 years now. My teaching experiences have been at the Early Childhood and Elementary level. I have most recently graduated from the University of Rochester with my degree in Educational Leadership. The work that I have done with children and their families over the years has played an integral role in my decision to pursue a future in school leadership. I consider educators incredibly lucky people. We have the exceptional opportunity of being able to form strong, positive relationships with so many remarkable children and their families year after year. Every child and every family make an impact, and that impact is what drives us to create the best experiences we can for our students.

My family and I currently reside in Collins, NY. My husband and I have three school-aged children and one, big dog. We love being outdoors and staying active. We enjoy camping, bike riding, and spending time with our family and friends. My family and I are excited about having the opportunity to become involved in this school community. This district has proven to be a special place and I am delighted to be an active participant.

I am planning a virtual Meet and Greet for the very near future. I sincerely look forward to meeting and visiting with all of you. I encourage you to reach out to me with any questions, concerns, or just simply to say hello. I can’t wait to start this new journey with all of you. Thank you so much for your time and I hope to see you soon.

All the best,

Mrs. Molly Wallschlaeger

Elementary Principal
