    Greetings Prairie-Hills School District #144 Family, 

    Welcome to a new and exciting 2024-2025 school year!  

    This school year, I will begin my 23rd year in Prairie-Hills School District 144, and it brings me great pleasure and excitement to return this year as the Assistant Principal of Mae Jemison Elementary School.  During my time in PHSD 144, I have taught 3rd through 7th grade and served as Dean, both Academic and Discipline.  My commitment to our students and being a part of the continuous journey of student success and innovative learning has been very rewarding throughout my career in education thus far.  I wish to continue to serve, support, and challenge our students to be the BEST that they can be, and to help them build a vision for their future.

    It is very important to me that I help to support an environment where students are not only meeting and exceeding their grade level standards, but also taking part in many different learning experiences. Student engagement and effort are vital to their success.

    This school year, my mission is to focus on the social and emotional needs of our students while helping them create positive relationships with others, build a positive mindset, and set goals.  I strive to maintain an environment where students can flourish in academics and extracurricular activities and provide a support system so that all students can be successful.  As a PBIS school, we will continue with the expectations of being Responsible…Respectful…and Safe.

    I am committed to building partnerships with students, staff, parents, and community members.  Your support, communication, and proactive approach is welcomed and appreciated.  Please feel free to reach out if I can be of assistance to you.  

    Thank you for your support,


    Ms. A. Cieplucha
