Dear SCMS Families,

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! I hope you had a restful and enjoyable summer, filled with memorable moments with your families. As we embark on a new academic year, I am filled with excitement and optimism for the journey ahead.

At Stephens County Middle School, we are dedicated to fostering a safe environment where every student can thrive. Our school motto, "Believe. LEAD. Inspire," serves as a guiding principle in everything we do. We believe in the limitless potential of our students, encourage them to lead with integrity and compassion, and inspire them to achieve greatness in all their endeavors.

This year, we have several exciting initiatives designed to enhance our students' learning experiences. As a Leader in Me school, students will learn and implement the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People into their daily routines. Our dedicated team of educators is committed to providing a supportive and challenging environment that nurtures both academic and personal growth. We are also focused on strengthening our partnership with you, as we know that collaboration between home and school is essential for student success.

Communication will be key as we move forward, and I encourage you to stay engaged with us through our various channels. Your involvement and support are invaluable to us, and we look forward to working together to create a connected and supportive school community.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. Together, we will make this school year a remarkable one, filled with growth, achievement, and inspiration.

Thanks,

Welcome to our SCMS community!

I am thrilled to continue serving as your assistant principal for the 2024-2025 school year. I am extremely excited about the direction our school is headed for the upcoming year.  My journey in education has taught me that the cornerstone of student success is the positive relationships we build together. That is why I continually strive to make those connections with students on a daily basis. 

At SCMS, we are dedicated to creating a supportive and inspiring environment where every student feels valued and empowered to reach their full potential. I am passionate about working closely with students, parents, and staff to cultivate a community where learning thrives and each individual achieves greatness.

Together, we will navigate the exciting challenges and opportunities of this school year, always striving for excellence. I look forward to connecting with each of you and making this a memorable and impactful year. Let’s work together to inspire and lead our students to new heights!

Welcome, and let's make the 2024-2025 school year exceptional!

 

Contact Dr. Jennifer Austin 

I am delighted to be serving the students, staff, and families of Stephens County Middle School.  As an alumnus of the Stephens County School System, I have fond memories of those who invested in me, believed in me, and helped guide me along my educational journey.  I consider it a privilege to be back home investing in the next generation of leaders.  

I married my college sweetheart, Rick Austin, and together we raised two sons, Sloan and Brice.  When I am not at school, I love being outdoors, traveling, and spending time with family.  I have a Ball Python, named Pi 3.14,  who loves to visit classrooms to see the amazing learning that is taking place.

Middle School is a critical time in the life of our students.  Thank you for allowing me to partner with you to create the best possible middle school experience for your child.  There are numerous  excellent  opportunities in which they can participate while at SCMS that will help to prepare them for their own individual journey.  I look forward to seeing each of our students blossom as they achieve growth and greatness during the upcoming school year!
