From Your Principals

Greetings from your Swanton School principals! Our single school campus houses two buildings. The PK to grade two building, called the Babcock Building, includes Ms. Jennett’s office. The Central Building, which houses grades three through six, includes Mr. Dodge’s Office. Our buildings are adjoined by a beautiful new playground! Both of us spend time in each building and we look forward to getting to know our students and families this year. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. We look forward to partnering with you in support of our students!

Chris Dodge, Principal
Justina Jennett, Assistant Principal
