Welcome Back Kiddos, Parents, & Families!
Here’s our Media Orientation Cartoon!
This is my 21st year at MHMS! Wait, what?? Whoda thunk it!?
I 
am SO honored to have been a part of this community since the beginning. I never thought I was one of those teachers who would stay in the same school for like, forever!
But here I am, still happy, loving our quirky middle school kiddos and the vibrant and rich diversity of our amazing neighborhood! I also like that I live near our community and only have to drive 7 minutes to get here!
This year is going to be fantastic and challenging! I’m so happy that Ms. Bell, our amazing Media Assistant is back with us full time! Thanks to our new FULL TIME AWESOME Superintendent, Michael J. Martirano for bringing back our much needed (and loved!) library paraeducators last year. WE really appreciate having our Library & Literacy program fully staffed – because we serve about 800 people! 730+ kiddos & 80+ teachers and staff!
That’s a lot of people and we love it!
Please follow us on Instagram!
I will try and share all the amazing things that happen every day here at MHMS – the cool kiddos, the fun times, the Science, the ELA, the Social Studies, MHTV, ART, SETEAM, Drama, well – as much as I can !
Like the fun we have during recess in the Library Media Center! Here are some of my fun kiddos!
We also LOVE Instagram Shelfies!
We also love to highlight kids #CaughtReading
#Makerspace Fun!
Speaking of making and working I’m excited to set up again our ever evolving Makerspace Station at MHMS in our Daring School Library Media Center for the fourth year! We’re going to be adding more stations, robotics, technology and opportunities to create, make, craft, design, code, and construct in our school!
But wait! There’s More!
The following are student, parent, and community resources I want to bring to your attention.
This page will also feature our new HCPSS Parent Portal – HCPSS Connect
If there’s something you need or that I can help you with…please don’t hesitate to let me know! I’d love to help!!
Dear MHMS Daring School Library,
I didn’t know about servant leadership. I enjoyed how you made the topic not about his dream, but servant leadership. Are there any presidents that you think were servant leaders?

Hello Ilan!
Wow, what an interesting question. To quote James Perry “There are precious few servant leaders in our current political environment. Many elected officials are more interested in personal power, individual legacy, and financial gain than in the sacrifice and commitment that servant leadership requires.”
I would say that I have always admired Washington, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Obama. Who do you think best measures up to this high standard of Servant Leadership?
Thanks for your kind comment!
