Principal's Message
Welcome to South Stanly Middle School!
Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,
Welcome to the South Stanly Middle School community, where every day is an opportunity for growth, learning, and success. I am honored to serve as the principal of SSMS and am excited to begin my third year leading this amazing school.
South Stanly Middle is a truly special place, filled with passionate educators, supportive families, and incredible students. Our dedicated staff works hard each day to create a safe, respectful, and engaging learning environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
At SSMS, we aim to GROW our students through an enriching academic journey, empowering them to be conscientious citizens prepared for enrollment, enlistment, and/or employment after high school. We believe in their value and potential and are excited to see them thrive!
We believe in the power of strong relationships and high expectations. Whether it’s in the classroom, on the stage, or on the athletic field, we celebrate the unique talents and contributions of each of our students.
As we begin the 2025-2026 school year, I invite you to stay connected, get involved, and partner with us to make this year the best one yet. Please explore our website to learn more about our programs, events, and how we can work together to support your child’s success.
Thank you for being a part of the South Stanly Middle School family!
