Principal's Statement

Dear Dudley Middle School Students & Families,

“Success is having peace of mind in knowing that you have given the very best of which you are capable of giving.” ~ John Wooden

These words resonate with me, each and every day. When I lay my head down at night, I am hopeful that I have been successful by this definition above.

Whether you are in grade 5, 6, 7 or 8, you are in control of having the best possible day, every single day. You will need to choose your attitude, be prepared, be a good citizen in our learning community, and meet the expectations of your teachers, in order to be a successful student.

This coming school year is sure to bring challenges that you may see as daunting. I am confident, however, that you will take those challenges on with the knowledge and support necessary to complete them. Your teachers, counselors, support staff and administrators are here for you and will be your biggest cheerleaders.

Become involved, be invested in your learning, and be a compassionate and caring member of our learning community. Best wishes for a great start to your school year, and an amazing experience to come!

Respectfully,

Mr. Starczewski
