Principal's Message

Welcome to Palm Middle School!

I am honored to welcome you to our school community—a place where students are encouraged to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in a safe and supportive environment. At Palm, we are proud of our dedicated teachers and staff who are committed to providing an engaging learning environment for all students. 

Middle school is a time of great transition and discovery. Our goal is to help students develop a love for learning, build strong character, and prepare for success in high school and beyond. At Palm Middle school we strive to be creative and innovative in our approaches to teaching.  We seek to engage students in their learning through STEAM activities, applications of technology, and 21st Century skills that are needed in order to succeed in today’s world.   Creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking are the 4 C’s of the 21st Century. These skills empower our students to become real-world problem solvers, and prepare them to be successful in their future careers and workplace. 

The Puma family believes in the importance of community and belonging. I encourage you to get involved in our parent groups such as School Site Council (SSC), African American Parent Advisory Council (AAPAC), or English Learners Advisory Council (ELAC). Join us as we collaborate towards the growth and success of your child's education. 

As principal, I am committed to maintaining open lines of communication and creating a school culture where every student feels seen, heard, and valued. Together, we can make these years some of the most memorable and impactful in your child’s life.

I am looking forward to meeting all of you and having an amazing year together!

With gratitude,

Dr. Hilary Reynolds
