Principal's Message

Welcome to Talley High, home of the Otters

Dear Talley students and families, 

It is my honor to serve as the proud principal of Talley High School.

My journey in education spans many roles from - paraeducator, teacher, head teacher, reading specialist, assistant principal, and parent. These roles taught me so much about what leadership really means which I have distilled to: deep listening, understanding the value of each community member, and building systems that ensure students succeed. 

Students, Talley is a choice school. It is a choice for:

- a more successful future 
-more opportunities in post secondary options
-more 1:1 support from teachers

Our staff center your unique story, strengths, and dreams. It is through the combination of our school structure and knowledge of students that allow you  to start here and go anywhere. 

To our families, you are so integral in the work we do here. Staff here are willing to hear from you via phone, Remind, or email. The information that you provide allows us to personalize the work we do. And when we do have to call you for support, please know that it will be done with respect and love for your student. You are more than welcome to come visit us for a guided tour. Your insights and feedback allow us to grow.

Thank you for trusting our school. 

Sincerely, 

Mrs. Pollard
