Dear Herburger Families, 

Welcome back to another year of learning! We look forward to an amazing 2025-2026 school year. It is our hope to advance everyone’s learning in a safe, nurturing environment. We want our students to maintain the mindset that nothing shall be impossible to them if they believe in their ability to succeed. Our EGUSD mission is to provide a learning community that challenges ALL students to realize their greatest potential. Roy Herburger Elementary strives to do this by ensuring high levels of learning for each student. 

Our teaching and support staff are well-trained, qualified, committed, and equipped to meet the needs of our students. We are life-long learners who endeavor to give our students the very best educational journey imaginable. Our educators focus on academic, social, and emotional success for our students. Our entire staff establishes and maintains safe environments for students to thrive. We are fortunate to have an outstanding group of professionals who help to make every day a new adventure for our students. 

Parents and family play an essential role in partnering with our school community to support our students’ success. We look forward to your involvement in community events, parent nights, classroom activities, and field trips this school year. We appreciate how you have prepared your children to work with others, give their best efforts, and represent you well everywhere they go. The structure that you have given them over the years helps them to demonstrate a readiness to engage with their community. 

Please review this handbook with your student, sign the verification form, and return it to your child’s teacher. We want everyone to succeed. Having a clear understanding of routines, procedures, and expectations helps to make this happen. 

We look forward to a productive school year! As we work together, we will continue to be Red-tailed Hawks who S.O.A.R. (Sacrifice, Overcome, Advance, and Reap Rewards)! 

Sincerely, 

Dr. Tamela L. Moore
