Principal's Message

Welcome to a new school year at Mitchell County Primary School (MCPS)! I hope this letter finds you well and rejuvenated after a restful summer break. As we embark on this exciting journey together, I want to extend my warmest greetings to each of you and share my enthusiasm for the year ahead.

 

At MCPS, we are committed to creating a nurturing environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Our dedicated staff is eager to foster a love for learning and inspire our students to reach their fullest potential. We believe every child is unique, and we aim to celebrate those differences by providing a wide range of programs and activities to engage all learners.

 

We would like to welcome all of our new families, whether you are joining us from another school in the district, have relocated from another city, state, or country or are enrolling in school for the first time. We are excited to share all that MCPS has to offer, and we believe you will soon feel as we do, that MCPS is a special place for ALL children. Our teachers, support staff, and families are ready to welcome you into the Eagles Nest.

 

The dedicated staff at MCPS has been working tirelessly to calibrate our instructional models, engage in professional learning opportunities, and discover best practices with the goal of fostering academic success for all students. Our teachers are eager to meet their new students and begin this year’s journey with them. Our primary goal is to ensure that all students are reading on or above grade level which directly impacts student proficiency in core academic subjects.  We dedicate ourselves to working together to create a solid foundation for our students so that they have the opportunity to become self-directed learners, collaborative teammates, critical thinkers, and responsible citizens.   

 

We look forward to the start of the new school year and to forming or continuing a collaboration that affords our students an opportunity to effectively engage in meaningful educational experiences. As always, we will look to our families to be positive partners in this year’s journey. The MCPS faculty and staff is dedicated to making it a priority to work together as a caring and compassionate learning community with professionalism, teamwork, action, and expertise. We will always put the best interests of our students at the center of our purpose. 

 

Here's to a fantastic school year filled with growth, learning, and lasting memories!

Warm regards,

 

Erica Jones, Ed.S.
