Mr. David Ray

Ben Hill Primary School Assistant Principal

    I would like to personally welcome all our students and parents to a new school year. As a faculty and staff, we would like to thank all our parents for putting their faith and trust in us to educate your children. We have many fun and exciting events planned for the school year, and we hope that students and parents will participate with us. As always, I have an open-door policy here at BHP and invite all our parents to come and be an active part of your child's education as you are one of your child's greatest assets when it comes to learning.
