Dear Scholars, Parents, Guardians, and Educators,

It is my privilege and honor to serve as the Principal of this remarkable institution, Hemingway MB Lee Middle School, a school with a proud tradition of academic excellence, character development, and a deep commitment to nurturing the full potential of every student. As we embark on a new academic year, I am filled with enthusiasm and optimism about the incredible journey that lies ahead.

Our dedicated team of educators is committed to providing a supportive and stimulating learning environment where every student can thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally. We believe that education is not just the transfer of knowledge, but the cultivation of critical thinking, creativity, and responsibility. Most importantly, we consistently pursue our school’s vision: "To inspire scholars to discover, cultivate, and maximize the greatness within themselves."

To our scholars, I encourage you to seize every opportunity that comes your way, both inside and outside the classroom. Your time at Hemingway MB Lee Middle School is your chance to explore your interests, discover your strengths, and build the foundation for your future. Know that your teachers, counselors, and the entire school community are here to support and guide you. As our mission states, we are committed to preparing all scholars for college, careers, and citizenship by providing a rigorous and supportive learning environment that equips them to succeed in a diverse and global society.

To our parents and guardians, your partnership is invaluable. Education is a collaborative effort, and your involvement plays a vital role in your child’s success. We welcome your engagement and encourage open communication. Please reach out to our staff whenever you have questions, concerns, or simply want to share a success. Together, we can make a lasting impact on your child’s academic and personal growth.

Our school community is grounded in core values of respect, integrity, and inclusivity. We strive to maintain an environment where diversity is celebrated and every individual is valued for their unique contributions. These principles guide our actions and create a safe, welcoming space for all.

Looking ahead, we will continue to focus on innovation, adaptability, and excellence, preparing our scholars for the challenges and opportunities of the future. Our goal is to instill a love for learning and a spirit of resilience and kindness in every scholar.

I invite you to stay connected with us throughout the year. Our school website will be regularly updated with important information, programs, and upcoming events. I encourage you to visit often and engage with us on our digital platforms to remain informed and involved.
