Principal's Message

Dear Aviation Elementary School Families,
Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I hope you were able to find some time to rest and create memorable moments this summer.
I would like to extend a warm welcome to our 3rd grade students who will be joining our Aviation community for the first time this year! I was the assistant principal at Hollyglen when you began your school career in Kindergarten. I look forward to reuniting with you here at Aviation!
For families who are new to our school, we are very happy to have you! If we have not met, I am Summer Graves, principal here at Aviation. This is my third year as Aviation principal. I am honored to work with this amazing community of learners, educators, and families.
Our Wiseburn mission to "Engage, Empower, Elevate" our students is our focus in all we do at Aviation. I am eager to meet all of our new bulldogs and families and to work together to build a brighter future for our students.
I would like to extend a special thank you to our custodial staff, office staff, and district office staff for the work they have put in this summer. With new ceiling tiles and flooring installed, our campus looks beautiful and ready for our Bulldogs! Also, thank you to the many teachers who took time out of their summer to learn and prepare for this new year; you are truly appreciated.
Please stay tuned for upcoming newsletters for more information. As a reminder, our School Year’s Eve event is Monday, August 25th followed by the first day of school Tuesday, August 26th. If you have any questions, feel free to call our school at (310) 725-2151 or email me at sgraves@wiseburn.org.
I can’t wait to see you soon!
Warmly,
Summer Graves
Principal, Aviation Elementary School
