Dear 6th grade students and families,

Welcome to MMS!  I look forward to working cooperatively with 

you in order to ensure a smooth transition to middle school.  If you are a little nervous, you are not alone! Middle school is challenging, but it is also an exciting time for students and parents.  As a school counselor, I am here to provide academic, social, and emotional support for students and their families as they navigate through the middle school years. 

Shortly, I will be scheduling visits to classrooms across the entire 6th grade for the purposes of introducing myself more personally to you, giving you much information about the Student Services Office, and answering any questions you might have regarding our school or my role as your counselor.  Your fantastic teachers are always very available to assist you, too, and we work together to provide you with the most comprehensive services we can.  So, until I see you in class, be sure to rely on them as your strongest resource; they are all amazing!

All my best for a terrific year,

Ms. Riehl :)
