From the Principal

June 29, 2026

Dear Hazel Park Families and Community Members,

I am excited to begin my second year as Principal of Hazel Park High School. It is a true privilege to serve a school community that is deeply committed to academic excellence, student growth, and strong partnerships with families and the community.

My leadership philosophy is rooted in collaboration, transparency, and an unwavering commitment to ensuring every student succeeds, both academically and personally. As we begin another school year, I look forward to building upon the strong tradition of excellence that defines Hazel Park High School while working alongside our outstanding staff to provide every student with an engaging, challenging, and supportive educational experience.

At Hazel Park High School, we are committed to fostering a positive, inclusive school culture where every student feels valued, respected, and empowered to reach their full potential. We celebrate success in academics, athletics, the arts, and extracurricular activities while promoting leadership, positive citizenship, and meaningful relationships throughout our school community.

I firmly believe that open communication and strong partnerships between home and school are essential to student success. I encourage parents and guardians to stay actively involved in their child's education and to participate in the many opportunities our school offers. Throughout the year, you can expect regular communication regarding important events, academic achievements, and school activities through newsletters, email updates, and our school website. Your involvement makes a meaningful difference, and we greatly appreciate your continued support.

I am grateful for the opportunity to continue serving the students and families of Hazel Park High School. I look forward to strengthening the relationships that make our school community so special. If you have any questions, concerns, or would simply like to introduce yourself, please do not hesitate to contact me at 248-658-5100 or [email protected].

Thank you for the continued support. I am incredibly proud to be a part of the VIKING community!

Please note that I will be on Summer Recess beginning July 1, 2026, and will return on August 3, 2026. If you need assistance during that time, please contact Dr. Amy Wilcox at [email protected]. I look forward to welcoming everyone back for an outstanding 2025–2026 school year!!

GO VIKINGS!

Sincerely,

George Dimas
HPHS Principal
