Rachel Clark, Principal

Welcome to Central Middle School, I am excited to embark on a new school year with each of you. Our school is built on the foundation of collaboration, compassion, and commitment—values that guide everything we do. We believe that, together with students, parents, and staff, we can create a supportive and thriving environment that fosters both academic and personal growth for every child.

At Central Middle, we are deeply committed to creating positive academic change that will elevate the success of all our students. We understand that education is constantly evolving, and we embrace this by focusing on innovative teaching practices and providing the tools students need to reach their highest potential. Our goal is to cultivate a love for learning while ensuring that each student has the knowledge and skills to excel in school and beyond.

Equally important is our dedication to the long-term success of the entire district. We see ourselves as part of a larger community, and the progress we make here at Central Middle will benefit our students and contribute to the ongoing improvement of the district as a whole. We are committed to working closely with parents, district leaders, and community members to ensure we create opportunities for success at every level.

We are also focused on building a strong, inclusive school culture that celebrates diversity and ensures that every student feels seen, heard, and valued. By fostering a sense of belonging, we aim to create a space where students are empowered to be their best selves and take pride in their school community.

As we begin this new chapter, we extend a warm welcome to all of our students and families. We are confident that with the collaboration of parents, the compassion of our educators, and a commitment to excellence, this school year will be one of growth, achievement, and success for everyone involved. Let’s make it a great year!
