Greetings to the Blacksburg Middle School Parents and Guardians!

It is an honor and a true pleasure to become a part of the Bruin Family and Team. While working in Montgomery County Public Schools over the last four years, I have appreciated the support and encouragement from community stakeholders, parents and guardians, students, and staff. The time given to building students in this community is truly priceless to student success and educational excellence. I am looking forward to continuing the legacy established by the many Blacksburg Middle School Bruin teams and families that have come before me. As we work together, teamwork makes the dream work. By working together, we can accomplish any task set before us as a community. As we engage, encourage, and empower students and families, let’s continue to focus on educational excellence and building all of our students towards prosperous and productive futures. Let’s Go Bruins!!
