Dear Parents and Students:
Welcome to Simmons Jr. Sr. High School - Home of the Blue Devils! I am honored to be the instructional leader of this amazing school!
We know the students of our community have great potential, and it requires every individual in their lives to purposefully work together for their success. We believe that close cooperation between our school and your home is essential for your child’s optimal educational experience, because we believe that “no significant learning occurs without a significant relationship” (Comer, 2004). Children are born with inquiring minds, and we must be committed to nurturing that innate sense of inquiry by providing them with quality and engaging opportunities to learn. We must teach them to think critically, be problem solvers, and to know how to access information. We are committed to equipping them with the necessary skills to compete in a competitive and global society, whether it’s through college or careers.
The staff at Simmons is continually learning and growing through professional development so that we have the necessary skills to empower and teach our students. We welcome your participation and support this school year and solicit your membership in the Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA). A collaborative effort will enable us to reach our collective and individual goals and celebrate the achievements of our students.
We look forward to working with you and your child and to a wonderful, productive school year filled with rich academic experiences supported by technology and individualized instructional techniques! We appreciate your cooperation and support, and we welcome your suggestions and ideas for improvement.
With Leadership Pride,
Shiquita W. Brown, Principal
