Message from the Principal

Dear Students and Families,

Welcome to a new school year at E. A. Cox Middle School! Whether you are returning to our school family or joining us for the first time, we are excited to begin another year of learning, growth, and success together.

This year, we are proud to continue building on our school theme: "Every Minute Matters:  to the Next Level, Every Day, Every Class." These words remind us that excellence is not achieved through one big moment—it is built through the small choices we make every day. Every class presents an opportunity to learn something new. Every day offers a chance to grow. Every minute is valuable and should be used with purpose.

At E.A. Cox Middle School, we believe every student has the potential to achieve great things. Our dedicated teachers and staff are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where students are challenged, encouraged, and inspired to reach their next level of success. Whether that means improving academically, developing leadership skills, building positive relationships, or discovering new talents, we are here to support every student along the way.

We also know that student success is strongest when schools and families work together. We encourage parents and guardians to stay connected, communicate with teachers, and participate in school events throughout the year. Your partnership plays a vital role in helping our students thrive.

As we begin this school year, I encourage every student to:

• Make every minute count.
• Come to school each day ready to learn and participate.
• Challenge yourself to reach your next level.
• Show respect, responsibility, and kindness in every classroom and throughout our school.
• Support one another and take pride in being a positive member of our school community.

I am excited about what lies ahead and all that we will accomplish together. By embracing our theme—Every Minute Matters: to the Next Level, Every Day, Every Class—I know we will create a school year filled with meaningful learning, personal growth, and outstanding achievement.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We look forward to partnering with you and celebrating the many successes that this school year will bring.

Have a wonderful start to the school year and remember: Every Minute Matters to the Next Level, Every Day, Every Class!

Sincerely,

Dr. Christine G. Potts
