Principal's Message

On behalf of the West Muskingum staff, we welcome you to middle school.

Since 1975, the West Muskingum Local Schools has had a middle school program. The program is based on the belief that effective fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth-grade education can take place in a setting that combines basic skills development, academic achievement, exploratory programs, and personalized self-development.

Middle school students present a special challenge to educators and to parents. They represent a variety of academic abilities and interests, different motivational and achievement levels, and a wide range of personal and developmental concerns. A successful middle school program must provide opportunities for growth and learning to accommodate all these differences among students.

We strive to foster a partnership between home and school and look forward to working with you throughout the school year. Please contact us at any time with questions, concerns, and suggestions, since your input is extremely valuable in providing the best possible education for each of our students.

Let’s have a great school year! GO TORNADOES!

Brent Wilson Principal,
WMMS
