Principal's Message

At Ira Jones Middle School, we are committed to fostering a positive and enriching learning environment that empowers every student to reach their full potential. Our dedicated team of educators is enthusiastic about inspiring curiosity, fostering creativity, and instilling a love for learning in every student. We do this through our P.R.I.D.E. acronym. P.R.I.D.E. stands for:

P: Positivity

R: Respect

I: Involvement

D: Dedication

E: Encouragement

Each school year promises to be filled with exciting opportunities for academic growth, personal development, and community engagement. We plan various events, activities, and initiatives that will not only enhance the educational experience but also create lasting memories for our students.

Communication between home and school is vital for a successful and enriching educational experience. We encourage you to stay connected with us through our school website, where you can find important updates, event calendars, and resources to support your child's academic journey. Additionally, our school staff is always available to address any questions or concerns you may have throughout the school year.

As partners in your child's education, we value your input and collaboration. Together, we can create a supportive and nurturing environment that enables each student to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

I look forward to working closely with our students, families, and staff to make this school year a memorable and successful one. If you ever need assistance or have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

With P.R.I.D.E.
