Dear Hollyvale Families,
It is with a heart full of gratitude and a touch of nostalgia that I share some personal news with you today. After a rewarding journey in education with Hesperia Unified School District that began in 1991, and having had the distinct honor of serving as your assistant principal and then principal at Hollyvale since 2018, I have decided to retire at the end of this school year.
While this is a big transition, I want to reassure you that I will be right here for the remainder of the 2025–2026 school year. My priority is to finish this year strong alongside our amazing students and staff, making sure our year-end celebrations are as special as ever.
Reflecting on my 35 years with the district, I am overwhelmed by the memories we’ve built. Being a part of the Hollyvale community has been one of the greatest highlights of my career. I am so deeply proud of our students—their resilience, their curiosity, and the kindness they show one another every day. To our families: thank you for your partnership, your trust, and for allowing me to be a part of your children’s lives.
I am also pleased to share that the future of Hollyvale is bright. Our wonderful Assistant Principal, Mrs. Maurice, will be staying on at Hollyvale to provide her consistent leadership and support. I am thrilled to announce that Dina Piazza-Ramsey, the current Principal at Krystal Elementary, will become the Principal of Hollyvale starting with the 2026–2027 school year. We are so excited to welcome her as our newest Hollyvale Hawk! She brings a wealth of experience and a genuine heart for students.
Hollyvale is a special place because of the people within its walls. Though I am moving on to my next chapter this summer, a piece of my heart will always remain here. Thank you for making these past years so unforgettable.
With much love and Hawk Pride,
Adora Sayre Principal, Hollyvale Elementary

Springing into a new season, Hollyvale! 🦅🌷
Don’t forget to "Spring Forward" tonight! Before you head to bed, move your clocks forward one hour. 🕒↗️
While we might be trading an hour of sleep for an hour of evening sun, we think the extra daylight is worth it! ☀️
See you all on Monday, Hawks!
