Dear Melrose Family:
It is with great excitement that I come into the 2023-24 school year as your new Principal at Melrose. I heard great things about the school and its families.
I have been in education for 24 years at the elementary level broken down with 7 years in the classroom, 5 years as an assistant principal and 12 years as principal. My undergrad was at Albright College where I was a dual major in Business Administration Marketing and Elementary Education. During my 11 years in Richmond, VA, I earned my M.Ed. in Educational Leadership through Virginia Commonwealth University. After moving back to PA in 2010 and taking on my first principal role, I then earned my Superintendent Letter of Eligibility through California University of PA.
We will have high expectations with high levels of support by working with you, communicating to you, and being a team to educate and grow your beautiful children.
Sincerely,
Mr. Matthew E. Shore
Matthew E. Shore, M.Ed.
Principal, Melrose Elementary
