“I get to do something that I’m extremely passionate about, which is to try to build a community for every student, every teacher and every staff member.”
— Bruce Saulter
16 march/april 2024 | royal palm the magazine

BUILDING A CONNECTED SCHOOL COMMUNITY

Bruce Saulter Loves

Being Principal Of The Tight-Knit Family At RPB’s Cypress Trails Elementary School

Bruce Saulter, who has served as principal at Cypress Trails Elementary School since 2018, is a career educator who enjoys both living and working in the Royal Palm Beach community.

Originally from Bloomington, Indiana, Saulter moved to South Florida in 2006 and taught hundreds of students at Royal Palm Beach Elementary School in his early years as a teacher.

“In my senior year of high school, seniors got to be selected to be counselors at a camp for fifth graders for a week,” Saulter recalled. “That was really my first experience working with kids, and I just really enjoyed it.”

It was an experience that he took with him to his studies at Hanover College in Indiana.

“I really tried to stay involved in working with kids — tutoring, being a mentor to local kids, and over the summer, I

worked at a summer camp in West Virginia, which gave me the opportunity to learn how to grow relationships with children, how to help them solve problems and grow. That is really the root of being a good teacher,” Saulter said.

After earning his degree, he taught sixth grade at a school in Indianapolis, learning lessons that he uses today as a principal.

“A first-year teacher really needs a strong support system to be successful,” Saulter explained. “You must try to every day get a little bit better and never give up on the students.”

Still a young teacher, Saulter jumped at an opportunity to move to South Florida and work in the community he has grown to love, teaching third grade at Royal Palm Beach Elementary School under the direction of then-Principal Suzanne Watson.

“If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t be where I am today,” Saulter said. “I felt at home and felt the positive culture and the love for teaching that all the teachers and administration had.”

He also enjoyed working with thenAssistant Principal Stacey Quinones, as well as Tracy Ghettie, the school’s current principal.

“They showed me what an administrator can be — someone who focuses on the people in the school and makes sure that everyone is provided with positive support while also providing high expectations,” Saulter said.

It was a lesson that he took with him in 2012, when Saulter was tapped to serve as assistant principal at Seminole Trails Elementary School in West Palm Beach.

“Becoming an administrator was an extremely difficult decision because I

royal palm the magazine | march/april 2024 17

loved being a teacher, but I knew I had the passion and the compass to be a strong school leader,” he said. “At Seminole Trails, I had an opportunity to grow more as a leader.”

That’s where Saulter met another key mentor in Principal Judith Garrard.

“She taught me all the ins and outs of being a principal,” he said. “I felt like I always had the people skills, and knew what was most important, but the role of principal is so much more behind the scenes, and I would not be here if it was not for her support.”

He enjoyed his time at Seminole Trails but jumped when the chance for a promotion came up. “I had the opportunity to apply and was selected to be the principal here at Cypress Trails, which brought me full circle back to Royal Palm Beach,” said Saulter, who has led the school for the past six years.

Royal Palm Beach has been his home for the past 12 years, where he is proud to be an active community member.

“Now, as the principal at Cypress Trails, it means even more,” he said. “I get to do something that I’m extremely passionate about, which is to try to build

a community for every student, every teacher and every staff member.”

That includes seeing parents and students at the grocery store or the soccer field. “I coach soccer, and I like seeing my students at practices and at games. It is an extremely strong advantage in trying to build a safe and positive place,” Saulter said.

While Saulter’s wife works at another school in Royal Palm Beach, both of their children will be attending Cypress Trails. Their son is a current student, and their daughter soon will be.

“That is such an important aspect of my school. We have so many children at our school who are the children of our staff,” Saulter said. “That is such a great compliment and indicates how special of a school we have.”

As principal, Saulter is most proud of the people and the relationships he has been able to build at Cypress Trails.

“My main focus coming in was trying to make it a place that is first and foremost safe, but a positive place where students have the opportunities to grow. That comes through high expectations, combined with a sense of belonging and

fun,” he explained. “I love just being able to see the students grow. This year’s fifth graders were in kindergarten when I got here. The more that I can see them in the community, the more that I can simply be available to talk to them. Those relationships just get stronger every year.”

He also enjoys working with Assistant Principal Lauren Hall and all the rest of the school staff.

“We have been a team for the last six years. We have been able to grow together,” Saulter said. “One of the greatest superpowers that principals have is to hire the best people. I have been able to hire some great people and let them blossom and flourish.”

As principal, Saulter said that he is always available to greet the school’s 518 students and send them home safely.

“The first thing that really defines us is how tight the bond is between a lot of our students, staff and families,” he said. “We are one of the smallest elementary schools in the western communities, if not the district. That is an advantage when it comes to building a school culture.”

That culture includes a “house system” that debuted this year, based on the program put forward by the Ron Clark Academy.

“This provides a connection point for every student,” Saulter said. “Every student has a trusted adult on campus and a small family of students on their grade level and schoolwide.”

He has seen how this new system has helped students become motivated and develop a strong sense of spirit among the four houses that make up the entire school.

“Students and teachers belong to houses,” Saulter explained. “It provides so many opportunities in a classroom, for example. Now, in that classroom, students have a small team. They can support each other and motivate each other.”

It is especially helpful when a new student arrives on campus.

“When that student comes to class, we sort the student by spinning a wheel,” Saulter said. “That student immediately feels connected to other students at the school.”

Once sorted, students remain with their house for the rest of the time that they are at Cypress Trails. The house system also allows leadership opportunities for fifth graders.

“We also offer a variety of other activities. We are a STEM school and provide a variety of activities connected to STEM [science, technology, engineering and math]. For example, every student receives instruction in STEM through our fine arts program,” Saulter said. “We also collaborate with local STEM partners, like Lion Country Safari and the PBSO.”

Cypress Trails is also one of the few elementary schools to offer a band program, which started this year.

“We now have a band program offered to fourth graders, and fifth graders next year,” Saulter said. “It is an opportunity for any student in fourth grade to join the program. We have a band teacher who visits our school each day, fully funded through the school district. That provides another activity for students to expand themselves.”

Looking toward the future, Saulter has no intention of leaving his Cypress Trails family.

“I absolutely love being the principal at Cypress Trails,” he said. “I love being in Royal Palm Beach. This is where my family is and where I am extremely happy. My future will be here, if it is up to me, as long as I can. It is amazing to see the growth of my students. It will be even more powerful to see their younger siblings grow up.”

Saulter is proud of the school’s A rating.

“That is not what defines us, but it

gives us a target to grow academically. If we grow every year, we are helping students reach their goals,” Saulter said. “Another goal is to continue to provide a variety of opportunities for students and teachers to be creative. That’s why I jumped at the opportunity to add the band program.”

His final goal for the school is to make

sure that every student and staff member feels safe, connected and respected.

“That is something that we will never give up on. We must continue to build relationships among the great team here,” Saulter said. “There are so many people on campus who make connections every day and make our school a special place.”

Nestled within its offerings of fine china, exquisite linens and fragrant candles lies a deeper purpose — an unwavering commitment to giving back to the community. The story of Casa Cristalle is one imbued with resilience, inspiration and an enduring dedication to making a positive impact.

Casa Cristalle began as a reflection of its founder’s personal values and aspirations. Royal Palm Beach resident Lissette Abreu Cabrera drew inspiration from the qualities and characteristics she cherishes in her daughters — transparency, delicacy, radiance and resilience.

With a desire to infuse these characteristics into her home, Cabrera christened her residence Casa Cristalle. What started as a passion for creating captivating tablescapes soon blossomed into a thriving online venture, fueled by her love for fine china and antique treasures.

Specializing in luxury home gifts and antiques, Casa Cristalle curates a unique selection of esteemed brands, ranging from Antica Farmacista to Spode, from Vietri to Rosenthal. With an eye for

both timeless elegance and contemporary flair, Cabrera meticulously sources each product, attending antique shows, estate sales and boutique shops to unearth hidden gems that elevate the art of table setting to new heights.

However, the Casa Cristalle story is not just one of commerce, but of triumph over adversity. Cabrera’s journey took an unexpected turn when she faced a formidable foe — non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

In the face of this life-threatening illness, she discovered an inner strength and resilience that would shape her perspective on life and business. Embracing her battle with unwavering faith and courage, Cabrera emerged victorious, her spirit unbroken, and her resolve strengthened.

The experience of overcoming illness infused her entrepreneurial endeavors with a profound sense of purpose. She realized that life’s most precious gifts are often found in the act of giving back. Thus, Casa Cristalle became more than just a purveyor of luxury goods; it became a vessel for philanthropy.

“My family supported the idea of combining my tablescaping entrepreneurial passion with my life mission,” Cabrera said. “We have donated to the Lord’s Place and Place of Hope, and we have helped individuals and families that reach out. Internationally, we have helped Fabrica de Milagros and a hotel and hospitality technical school in Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic.”

From donating profits to nonprofit organizations to spearheading initiatives for the less fortunate, Cabrera and her team are committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Whether it’s providing essential medical assistance, supporting orphanages or empowering aspiring artisans, the chari-

table efforts at Casa Cristalle are guided by a spirit of compassion and empathy.

The impact of these outreach initiatives extends far beyond material donations. It is measured in the smiles of children receiving toys, in the gratitude of individuals receiving much-needed support, and in the hope restored to communities facing adversity. Each success story serves as a testament to the transformative power of kindness and generosity.

Looking to the future, Cabrera aims to expand Casa Cristalle’s footprint in both the luxury home goods market and community outreach efforts. With aspirations of opening physical retail locations and broadening its charitable endeavors, she envisions a world where compassion and commerce intersect seamlessly. Through continued innovation, collaboration and dedication, Casa Cristalle seeks to leave a lasting legacy of hope, strength and love.

For aspiring entrepreneurs seeking to follow in Cabrera’s footsteps, her advice is simple yet profound: follow your passion, embrace adversity as an opportunity for growth and never underestimate the impact of giving back. By aligning business goals with a greater purpose, entrepreneurs can create meaningful change and inspire others to do the same.

To Casa Cristalle’s loyal customers and supporters, Cabrera extends her heartfelt gratitude. It is through their patronage and generosity that the company’s mission thrives, enriching the lives of countless individuals in need. With every purchase, they become partners in a journey of compassion and empowerment, leaving an indelible mark on the world.

Casa Cristalle stands as a testament to the transformative power of combining luxury with philanthropy. With its unwavering commitment to excellence and compassion, it serves as a beacon of hope and inspiration in an ever-changing world.

“Together, let us continue to spread love, kindness and generosity, one elegant table setting at a time,” Cabrera said, thanking her family for their support, including her husband Carlos Orlando Cabrera and daughters Cristalee Amber Garcia and Christine Angelee Garcia.

For those interested in reaching out to Casa Cristalle or joining its mission of giving back, the company can be found on the web and at numerous social media channels.

PERFECT PASTRIES PAIRED WITH FRESH-ROASTED COFFEE

It’s two great tastes coming together at Candid Coffee Co. and Anna Bakes, which opened locally last year featuring coffee roasted on-site and made-from-scratch baked goods.

It’s a recipe for success with Candid Coffee Co. and Anna Bakes, which pairs a perfect blend of coffee with a pastry chef who specializes in elevated desserts. The two companies have joined forces in one location, bringing a new energy and sweetness to the Pointe at Wellington Green.

“Both our brands are so bright and colorful. It was all so very symbiotic immediately,” said Anna Ross, proprietor of Anna Bakes.

This must-try coffee shop and bakery specializes in on-site roasted coffee along with sweet and savory made-fromscratch baked goods and pastries — from the sweet and textured Birthday Batter Cupcakes oozing with filling, frosting and crunchy birthday crumb, to the savory Feta Pesto Danish, made with croissant dough, whipped feta cheese, pesto and grape tomatoes drizzled with a balsamic glaze.

These treats pair with an array of expertly crafted brews from Candid Coffee that include blends from Guatemala with notes of chocolate, almond and sugar cane, as well as one from Ethiopia with hints of milk chocolate, strawberry and merlot.

Coffee and bakery flavors rotate, while also keeping staples on the everyday menu, including traditional coffees.

Beans are roasted to perfection onsite, with the state-of-the-art Bellwether Coffee roasting system, which allows for customized, unique flavors by roasting beans to taste.

“We have an all-electric roaster for utmost quality and consistency,” said Candid Coffee co-owner Bryan Jenkins, who received his roasting certification in Seattle. “The whole goal is to roast on a small scale, so you can do a lot of fresh stuff quickly. It’s always fresh.”

“It’s a science and an art,” added coowner Megan Jenkins.

A trendsetter herself, Megan began creating cold foam varieties four years

ago, which have grown into 50 flavors that rotate, from funfetti to cookies-n-cream, hazy honey and malted vanilla.

“We switch them every month, and you can try a flight that includes all three of the featured drinks, as well as one of our staples,” Megan said. “I love experimenting with flavors.”

She began experimenting with ingredients, first creating a cocoa cinnamon variety. “If something’s good on a pastry, it’s probably good with coffee,” Megan said.

“Once roasted, you want to let it sit. It tastes the best between a week and two weeks after it was roasted,” Bryan explained. “My favorite coffee flavor is fruity and surprising. I like to drink them black because you get all the nuances.”

Ross said she has known since she was 15 that she would open a bakery. She was inspired by her mother. The family baked together every night, experimenting.

“I’ve always been Anna Bakes. My friends called me that in high school and college. My slogan is ‘Anna Bakes to make you happy,’ and I really feel like baked goods do that,” she said.

The Candid Coffee husband-and-wife team, Bryan and Megan Jenkins, started in Palm Beach County’s warehouse district. The Palm Beach Central High School sweethearts fell in love with the art of coffee during their travels after graduating from college. They began by roasting at their site, then remotely selling at green markets.

Meanwhile, Ross was baking from her parents’ kitchen in Lake Worth, but when they decided to sell their home, she had to find a new location. As fate had it, they found each other.

“We realized we were missing a huge ingredient, which was Anna,” Bryan explained. “We had coffee, but we needed a partner who would give us that other side. We wanted to feel like the love that went into the coffee would also go into the pastries.”

(Bottom row) The Mama Ross Breakfast Burrito, along with Everything Scones and Vanilla Bean Scones; Candid Coffee’s gourmet whole bean bags come from a number of origins, like these from Guatemala and Ethiopia; Candid Coffee drinks are always poured to perfection; and a revolving array of sweet and savory delights fill the display case.

Ross, a graduate of Johnson & Wales University, crafted her love of baking at the prestigious culinary university, and then took her studies abroad to France.

The fresh and welcoming coffee house-bakery is bright and open with hues of blue and muted pink, created by muralist Devin Noel. It’s also perfect for a coffee date for parents and little ones, who get their own child-sized lounge space.

“We have a kids’ latte. We foam the milk, put a little cinnamon on it, and serve it in a coffee cup, and they love that they can have a coffee date with their parents,” said Megan, adding that it is an ode to their three-year-old daughter, Riley.

Other fan favorites are the rich quiches by the slice, with scratch-made crust. Flavors include sweet potato and spinach, as well as the traditional Quiche Lorraine with ham, bacon, onion and Swiss cheese.

Scones are a savory staple, including the Everything Scone, stuffed with

chunks of cream cheese and topped with “everything” seasoning. The Mama Ross Breakfast Burrito with scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese and tater tots, served with a side of homemade salsa, is a huge daily hit.

Special pastry rotations include the Baklava Twice Bake, drenched in honey orange syrup, pistachio and walnut phyllo crumble. The Lemon Raspberry Loaf is also popular with raspberry jam swirl and topped with lemon streusel.

There are always gluten-free and vegan options, as well as homemade granola.

The pastry and coffee creations are endless, made with a palpable passion, summed up by a bright yellow neon sign: “We go together like cake & coffee.”
