About Us
Welcome Back to the 2025-2026 School Year!

As an experienced administrator of 21 years and dedicated educator with a knowledge base in Educational “Best Practices”, I am eager to create a working partnership with our staff, parents and community partners. My goal is to help each student embrace the tools necessary towards transitioning into high school while simultaneously preparing for the 21st Century.
At Albert Bushnell Hart Elementary, I believe that it is important for our parents and staff to work together to share the responsibility for student success. We value partnership and are eager to build positive working relationships with all parents. I believe that a strong partnership between our school, each classroom, home and community is critical to the student and school success. Throughout this transition, the Albert Bushnell Hart Elementary will be “rethinking the possibilities” for improved student success. Therefore, we welcome and encourage you to participate and volunteer within our school. Without the support and dedication from the families of our students, we will not be able to reach our potential. I welcome you to come and meet your child’s teachers to build a partnership to help your child grow and increase student achievement.
Your partner in education,
Kevin L. Payton
