SHAMOKIN AREA MIDDLE / HIGH SCHOOL 

PRINCIPAL’S NEWSLETTER 

AUGUST 2018

As the new principal of the Middle/HS It is my pleasure to welcome everyone back for another great year in Shamokin. We are excited to have students back in our classrooms and hallways filling them with energy and enthusiasm for learning.  It is our mission to help every child feel welcomed, connected, and part of our Shamokin Area family.  Additionally, we strive to challenge each student to grow in his or her academic abilities.  At Shamokin Area Middle/HS, we have great teachers who spend hours planning and creating classroom activities to engage our students in learning.  We believe that all students should graduate from Shamokin Area prepared for the demands of postsecondary education, meaningful careers and effective citizenship.  Our maintenance staff has also worked countless hours preparing our great facility this summer for teachers, students, parents, and community members. 

I am honored to serve as the principal of Shamokin Area Middle/HS. It is truly a privilege to be a part of a community where parents, teachers and students care for each other and strive to build positive relationships that support academic growth.  Once again, welcome back!!! Let’s make this year the best yet at Shamokin Area Middle/HS. 

Go Indians!!
