Assistant Principal

From Mrs. Dynes

I look forward to an exceptional academic year.  Being a parent of three children that have been in the Central School District allows me to see the educational experience from a parent’s perspective. Transitioning from the Ruth Musser classroom to the Assistant Principal will also allow me to see Musser through a teacher and administrator’s eyes.

 

Ruth Musser committed to maintaining an exceptional academic environment that provides quality instruction to all of our students, which will ensure that they meet federal, state and local standards.

Ruth Musser Middle School promotes an environment, which is safe and orderly for students and staff members. All staff members express pride in the safety and adequacy of the school facilities and encourage students to demonstrate this pride as well. School and classroom rules are well known to students and their parents. Teachers, administrators, and support staff deal with violations on a fair and consistent basis.

Programs and activities, which promote safety and students’ self-esteem, responsibility and social, emotional and academic growth are high priorities at Ruth Musser Middle. Our programs in place, monitor policies, procedures, discipline and rewards for student conduct including:

  • School-wide and classroom rules
  • Discipline committee
  • Disaster plan and fire evacuation procedures
  • Student study team
  • Counseling program
  • Recognition programs such as Honor Roll
  • Before and after school and lunch student supervision
  • Monthly safety inspections
  • Citizenship and special awards
