Irina Rodriguez
Associate Principal of ROMS and Lead 6th Grade Administrator
Welcome to our school. I cannot tell you how excited we are to be joining you on the next part of your child’s education journey. Here at ROMS – 6GC we truly feel that we are your partners in education and take that responsibility very seriously.
We realize that leaving elementary and coming to the middle school can be filled with apprehension for parents and students. Our goal as a learning community is to serve as the “bridge” between elementary school and ROMS Main Campus for both students and parents in an effort to make the transition easier.
Our goal is that students get 1% percent better every day in every area of their lives. We want to focus on the whole child so that our students will have the skills to be empowered in every area of life, not only in middle school, but also the rest of their lives.
Jennifer Fortenberry Assistant Principal - 6 Grade
Calinda Wells - Counselor - 6 Grade
The counseling program at 6th Grade Center is one that works to implement the best practices outlined by the Texas Education Agency to serve 6th grade students. To that end, the scope of counseling services includes guidance curriculum, responsive services, individual planning and system support.
Specifically, my personal approach to servicing my students involves collaborating with students, parents, teachers, and administrative staff to implement the counseling program. My goal is to help prepare students for meaningful and productive living. I work to implement a program that will teach students valuable academic, personal/social, and career skills that students take with them as they progress beyond 6th grade. I acquire routine professional development to stay up to date on the latest school counseling strategies. Data is also employed to implement a program specific to the needs of the 6th Grade Center. In general, the counseling department works to support and promote the school’s goals for student success.
