Dear Parents, Families and Friends:
Welcome to Georgetown Middle School, Home of the Bulldogs! I am excited to be entering my sixth year as principal of Georgetown Middle School and my 26th year in education.
While the 2020-2021 school year was one that none of us will ever forget, I am honored to have been a part of a school and a community that persevered during the pandemic! Our students, staff, parents, and community rallied together to keep our students safe and provide the best academic experience possible under the circumstances. A new year is a fresh start on the school calendar, full of hope and potential. As we enter the 2021-2022 school year, we are in a time of change. We are asking you to join us as we focus on changing our habits, changing our mindset, and changing our perspectives. This will help all of us explore our fears of the past year and acknowledge the difficult but important nature of working together to help our students grow academically and socially.
As you prepare for the 2021-2022 school year, we ask that you make sure all contact information is up-to-date in PowerSchool, respond to emails, text messages, and phone calls from school staff, and check your student’s grades on Parent Portal periodically. We also encourage families to contact us with any questions and concerns when they arise. Your feedback to surveys we send out during the year, will help us make decisions that best meet the needs of our students and staff. We look forward to working with you during the school year. I truly believe a solid partnership between the school and home will encourage each child to want to become successful in the classroom and the community.
We are excited to have our Bulldogs back to school!!! If we work together as a GMS family, there will be nothing our students can’t accomplish.
Sincerely,
Mr. Seth C. Hillman
Principal
