It is a blessing to be part of this team and in this community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope your summer was filled with opportunities to relax, recharge, and spend quality time with family and friends. As I step into my first official year as principal, I\u2019m especially excited to reconnect with many of you I\u2019ve worked with in the past and to build new relationships with those I haven\u2019t yet met. Homer High is a special place, and I\u2019m honored to be part of this community once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year brings some changes to our staffing and schedule, as adjustments were made districtwide to meet new requirements. While our class offerings and sizes look a little different, our staff has approached these shifts with creativity, problem-solving, and a focus on keeping student learning at the center of every decision. The result is a schedule that continues to offer strong academic opportunities, engaging electives, and a variety of ways for students to connect, learn, and grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are committed to building trust, communicating openly, and engaging your child in meaningful learning every single day. As parents and families, your role is essential. We need to work together to support our students, and I want you to know my door is always open, whether it\u2019s to share an idea, ask a question, or simply say hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m excited for the year ahead and grateful for your continued support. Whether you\u2019re joining us for the first time or have been a Mariner family for years, know that we are committed to making this a year of learning, connection, and community pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go Mariners!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eric Pederson<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"mailto:epederson@kpbsd.org\">epederson@kpbsd.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>907-235-4600<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Message from the Principal PRINCIPAL&#8217;S CORNER Dear Mariner Families, \u201cEntrance\u2026new school year!\u201d Welcome to the 2025\u20132026 school year! &nbsp;I am so excited to Homer High School\u2019s new principal.
