A Message from Our Principal

Welcome, Santa Maria Community,

I am delighted to continue as principal of Santa Maria Middle School, and extend a warm welcome to the new school year ahead! It is a privilege to return to this community and continue our journey together.

This year, our primary objectives are to furnish our students with targeted resources and support aimed at amplifying their proficiency in both reading and math, alongside offering enriching opportunities to further their academic growth. We firmly believe in the potential of every child to learn and succeed.

Regular attendance is fundamental to academic achievement. Parents and guardians play a crucial role in ensuring that students attend school regularly and are prepared to learn. I encourage you to get involved in our school community. Whether through volunteering in the PTO, participating in academic events, or engaging in school functions, your contribution makes a significant difference.

Please explore our website to discover a variety of after-school programs including tutoring, student leadership, jazz band, mariachi band, archery club, digital media club, athletics, and many other engaging opportunities for our scholars!

As we embark on the 2024–2025 school year, I am eagerly anticipating another exceptional year ahead at Santa Maria Middle School. Thank you for choosing Santa Maria Middle School. We are here to serve you. Let’s make this year a memorable and successful one. Progress over perfection–Go Bulldogs!

Warm regards,

Amelia Sanchez
Santa Maria Middle School Principal
