Principal’s Message

Rafael Calixto

Dear A.I. Prince  Families and Community,

I am truly excited to welcome you to a new school year! Each year brings fresh opportunities for growth, learning, and connection, and I couldn't be more proud to serve as your principal as we begin this journey together.

At A.I. Prince Technical High School, we believe in setting high expectations—not just because we want our students to succeed academically and in trades, but because we know they are capable of incredible things. With the right support, encouragement, and hard work, every student can rise to challenges and achieve more than they ever imagined.

Equally important, we are committed to making sure that every student feels seen, heard, and valued,and that every student is supported academically, emotionally and socially. 

Every voice matters here.

Every story matters. 

Every dream matters. 

Our goal is to create and sustain an environment where students not only thrive in school, but also develop the skills and confidence to become productive and engaged members of their communities and positively impact their long term trajectory.

Together—with families, teachers, staff, and our entire community—we will help our students reach their full potential. I am so excited to see the amazing things they will accomplish this year and beyond.

I am grateful for your partnership as we work together to create a safe, supportive and inspiring learning community for all students. Together we will build a school community where our students not only succeed as students, but also grow into thoughtful, responsible and compassionate individuals.

Thank you for your partnership, your trust, and your support. Here's to a year filled with learning, growth, and success—for every student, every day.

With appreciation and commitment,

Rafael Calixto
Principal
A.I. Prince Technical High school
