McCowan Middle School
Mission: Maximize Success
PRINICPAL'S MESSAGE
I want to extend to you and your family a very warm welcome back! We have completed our first semester of school and will embark upon the second semester rested and rejuvenated. As I think about the upcoming semester, I’m very excited about this next chapter we are about to write. We will continue to enhance our culture of continuous improvement. My two areas of focus will be: To build relationship and create a sense of belonging for all our students and Create a place where all students make academic growth. As the principal of McCowan Middle School, I believe that it is my responsibility to maintain and to continue to build a supportive and collaborative spirit at our school. Together as a school community, we will build on the traditions of the past and meet the challenges of the future in innovative and exciting ways.
