I welcome everyone with great excitement and heartfelt warmth—both returning and new—to our school community. As we begin this year together, we are guided by a clear and powerful vision: to nurture meaningful connections, inspire academic growth, provide robust social-emotional support, and foster the full development of every child.

 At EHMS, we believe that strong relationships are the foundation of a thriving school. We are committed to building a sense of belonging where every student feels seen, heard, and valued. Whether through daily interactions, classroom communities, or school-wide events, we want each family to feel connected to our shared mission and to one another.

Welcome to East Hamilton Middle School,

 Academically, we strive for excellence while honoring the diverse learning styles and strengths of every student. Our dedicated teachers and staff work tirelessly to create engaging, challenging, and supportive learning environments that spark curiosity and encourage a lifelong love of learning.

Equally important is our commitment to social and emotional learning. We understand that students’ well-being is vital to their success, both in school and beyond. Through intentional programs, caring adults, and a focus on empathy and resilience, we aim to equip our students with the tools they need to navigate life with confidence and compassion.

Whole-child development is at the heart of all we do. We see each student not just as a learner, but as a unique individual with dreams, talents, and potential. Our approach blends academics, emotional support, creativity, physical wellness, and character development to help every child grow into their best self.

As we begin this journey together, I encourage open communication and partnership between home and school. Your voice matters deeply, and we welcome your collaboration in creating an enriching and inclusive environment for all.

Thank you for entrusting us with the privilege of educating your child. I am truly honored to lead a school community so full of promise, passion, and purpose. Here’s to a year of growth, discovery, and connection.  Never forget, “I am, We are, East Hamilton!”

With appreciation and excitement,

 Dr. Justin McCulley
