Principal's Update for June

I hope you are all having a great summer! The Hernandez staff is growing as we hire THE BEST teachers from across the nation to work with our children.


Our school colors have been chosen and in keeping with Pfc Robert Hernandez' background as a U S Marine, the colors will be SCARLET and GOLD. The mascot chosen by our students also reflects the Marine background - BULLDOG!


The staff met in a retreat to develop a mission and vision for Hernandez as follows:


Mission:

Hernandez Middle School is a collaborative school that provides a safe learning environment. Our spirit of excellence honors achievement, embraces diversity, and commits to service.



Vision:

Hernandez Middle School is creating a community where learning:

         sparks a sense of wonder

         nurtures the duty of awareness

         and inspires all to serve.


Our core values are based upon HONOR:

Honesty

Open-mindedness

Never Give Up!

Ownership

Respect


If you drive by the building, you will notice the outside has been power washed. The inside is being painted. Soon you will see the new signage on the building and a new marquee out front.

Plans are being made for a beginning of the year orientation and check-in for students. As soon as the timeline for building occupancy is clearer, dates and times will be communicated.

Enjoy the rest of your summer!
