Principal's Corner

Dear Netzaberg Elementary School Community,

It is an honor to join and lead the Dragon family as your new principal. At Netzaberg ES, our work is guided by the DoDEA Mission—to educate, engage, and empower each student to succeed in a dynamic world—and the DoDEA Blueprint, which focuses on excellence in student achievement, equity, and continuous improvement.

Our Dragon RISE Pledge—Responsible, Integrity, Safe, Empathy—reflects these values in action. Together, we will create a learning environment where every child feels supported, challenged, and inspired to rise each day.

I look forward to partnering with you to ensure our students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Thank you for welcoming me into this incredible community.

With pride and purpose, 

Mrs. Jenaya Parris Principal, Netzaberg Elementary School
