Principal's Corner

Welcome to Baumholder Middle High School

Sharing a firm belief in collaboration as a 21st century school community, encompassing educators, students, and parents to ensure student academic success, we embrace the whole child here at Baumholder Middle High School. 

As, Principal, I alongside our Baumholder school community, serve to create a school atmosphere where students lead in their learning. She believes in collaboration and a team approach, cultivating partnerships with school staff, parents, community, and military support organizations. 

Baumholder Middle High School prides itself on being a small community where teachers can provide individualized instruction for our community of students. At BMHS, students can learn in a small community environment. Given our small population size, we can provide individualized instruction to all students. Serving as Principal for six years, it is my mission to continue to provide the same opportunities to students with a small but hard-working staff. We believe in the power of student-centered learning. 

Fostering strong relationships within a supportive community is key to creating and maintaining our student-centered learning objectives. With this in mind, we believe that increasing community stakeholder engagement through school-community partnerships is critical to meeting our school-wide mission and goals. School community partnerships currently exist through BMHS PTSA and the BMHS School Advisory Council. We encourage our community members to get involved in both organizations to support our curricular and extracurricular activities for students and serve to inform school leadership of concerns to address in support of our community.

At Baumholder Middle High School, we have a continual open-door policy. Should you have any questions or concerns, we are here for you and welcome you to our community.
