Principal's Message
Welcome to the 2025–2026 School Year
As we begin a new school year, I do so with a deep sense of purpose and optimism. The work we do
at MJMS is more important than ever, and our shared commitment to excellence continues to define
us. This year, we move forward under a renewed mantra: "On the Rise." These words reflect not just
our aspirations, but our collective momentum—our determination is growth and improvement in
every student, every classroom, and every outcome.
At MJMS, we remain focused on delivering rigorous, high-quality instruction that engages students
intellectually and supports their growth in all areas—academic, social, and emotional. Our educators
are dedicated professionals who challenge students to think critically, act responsibly, and reach their
full potential.
Our mission is clear: to prepare students not only for success in high school, but also for the
opportunities and challenges that lie beyond. Whether their paths lead to college, a trade, the
military, or the workforce, we aim to ensure every student is equipped with the skills, knowledge, and
confidence to succeed.
As we rise together, I want to thank you—families, staff, and community members—for your
continued support. Your partnership makes our progress possible. Let us move forward with focus,
with unity, and with the conviction that great things lie ahead.
Here’s to a strong and successful year—we are On the Rise.
Warm regards,
Carlos M. Lainez
Principal, Miller Jordan Middle School
