Greetings Vikings,  

I am thrilled to welcome you back to the 2022-2023 school year. I am privileged and excited to be starting my fourth year as Principal of Miami East Junior High to work with such an outstanding staff.  I also hope you are eager, recharged and ready to start a new school year. I am so delighted that you are part of our amazing learning community and welcome your positive energy to excellence in education, and I look forward to working with you and your children.

Miami East is such a special place to learn and grow. Our students are kind, compassionate, and inquisitive.  Together with our dedicated staff, we strive to make connections with students to help them feel valued, accepted, and safe. Our Viking Way motto of “Be Responsible, Be Respectful, and Use Self Control”  will continue to guide our mission to provide a rigorous and joyful school environment. Our goal at MEJH is to encourage active student engagement to foster a lifetime love for learning, develop positive attitudes, and continue a strong emphasis on social emotional learning.

As we continue towards a new normal, partnering with families will be crucial again this year.  We appreciate your support as you work with students at home to practice safety protocols. We encourage families to stay connected and informed by following our district website, through Final Forms and please follow us on twitter @MiamiEastJH for updates and information.
