Principal's Message

Dear R.L. Norris Families,
It is with great excitement and a deep sense of responsibility that I introduce myself as the new principal of R.L. Norris Elementary School. I am honored to join a school community with such a rich tradition of excellence, a strong commitment to student success, and a dedicated team of educators.
At R.L. Norris, we believe that every child matters and every moment counts. Our theme this year, “Built on RAMS Pride: Every Piece Matters,” reflects our belief that each student, staff member, and family plays a vital role in the success of our school. Together, we will build an environment where students are challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
As principal, I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and inclusive school culture where learning is joyful and meaningful. My door is always open, and I value open communication and collaboration with our families and community partners.
I look forward to working together to make this a remarkable year for our students!
With RAMS Pride,
Ms. Sonya Thomas
Principal, R.L. Norris Elementary School
