Principal's Corner

Welcome to Shugart Middle School!

Shughart Middle provides a safe and supportive environment where high quality education takes place. We promote critical thinking skills and a respect for the core values through P.R.I.D.E.

Our staff are focused on engaging students in rigorous curriculum and pushing them toward their academic potential in order for them to succeed in a dynamic world. I envision all of us working together to achieve our ultimate goal of improved student achievement.

We really value our home and school partnerships that we have and look forward to building even more as the year progresses. We will honor achievements of all and promote P.R.I.D.E. in ourselves, our school, and our community. Thank you for entrusting your children with us.

Showing P.R.I.D.E. in everything we do!
