A Welcome from the Principal

September 2026

Dear Birch Hill Families,

I am so happy and proud to be joining the vibrant Birch Hill Elementary School community as your new principal. As we awaken from the summer and our students, staff, and families return to school, the building truly comes to life again—with the energy, excitement, laughter, and learning that make Birch Hill such a special place.

I am looking forward to getting to know our students and families and becoming an active part of this wonderful community. There are many opportunities for families to be involved in the life of our school and in the education of your child, and I hope you will take advantage of those opportunities throughout the year.

Together, we can continue to build a school community where every child feels welcomed, valued, supported, and encouraged to do their very best. I am excited for the year ahead and look forward to all that we will accomplish together.

Welcome back, Birch Hill Lions! I can't wait to meet you all!

Chris McCallum
Principal, Birch Hill Elementary School
