Meet Our Principal
Mrs. Frances Foote, Esq.
My number one goal as your Principal is to holistically nurture every student who enters our campus. Why? Look around you. Our world desperately needs godly individuals who display academic prowess, critical thinking skills, and social aptitude.
For 106 years, the Dupont Park Adventist School has dutifully answered that call. We empower our students to serve as leaders today, tomorrow, and forever. That mission has never changed, and our resolve has never wavered. I am excited as we encourage these current and future leaders to reach their fullest potential. Although the objective remains the same, our approaches must be adaptable. We will continue to incorporate technology in the classroom.
Our decisions will be intentional, data-informed, and prayer-based. Most importantly, our young scholars will flourish and be safe. Parents will be involved. Teachers will be supported. This is how we prepare them to serve their families, communities, and each other. So if you have children or know children in grades PreK-3 thru 8 who are not currently enrolled at Dupont Park Adventist School, I encourage you to enroll them. Today!
