Dear East Montana Middle School Families,
Welcome to East Montana Middle School—Home of the Rattlers! We are excited to welcome our students and families to our campus, and we look forward to another year of growth, learning, and success.
At East Montana, we proudly live by our motto: “Strike First.” This means we aim to finish first in everything we do—in the classroom, on the field, and in our community. But finishing first doesn’t happen by chance. It takes effort, commitment, and dedication—and that starts with each of us showing up every day ready to learn and give our best.
We are fortunate to be part of a feeder pattern filled with outstanding educators who are passionate about helping students achieve excellence. They will provide you with countless opportunities to succeed, and your responsibility is to take advantage of them by staying focused, working hard, and striving to be your best self.
We believe in you, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Let’s make this year one to remember—let’s Strike First and finish strong!
With Rattler Pride,
Alex Navarro PrincipalEstimadas familias de la Escuela Intermedia East Montana:
¡Bienvenidos a la Escuela Intermedia East Montana, hogar de los Rattlers! Nos complace dar la bienvenida a nuestros estudiantes y familias a nuestro campus, y esperamos con ansias otro año de crecimiento, aprendizaje y éxito.
En East Montana, vivimos con orgullo bajo nuestro lema: "Strike First". Esto significa que nuestro objetivo es ser los primeros en todo lo que hacemos: en el aula, en el campo y en nuestra comunidad. Pero ser los primeros no es casualidad. Requiere esfuerzo, compromiso y dedicación, y eso comienza con cada uno de nosotros presentándonos cada día listos para aprender y dar lo mejor de nosotros.
Tenemos la fortuna de formar parte de un sistema de educación continua lleno de educadores excepcionales, apasionados por ayudar a los estudiantes a alcanzar la excelencia. Ellos les brindarán innumerables oportunidades para el éxito, y su responsabilidad es aprovecharlas manteniéndose enfocados, trabajando duro y esforzándose por ser su mejor versión.
Creemos en ustedes y estamos aquí para apoyarlos en cada paso del camino. Hagamos que este año sea inolvidable: ¡Dar el primer paso y terminar con fuerza!
Con orgullo de Rattler,
Alex Navarro Director
