Principal's Message 4th Marking Period 2025

Dear Parents and Guardians,

As we approach the final stretch of the school year, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued partnership and support in what has been another remarkable year at Carl W. Goetz Middle School. It’s a true privilege to serve as Principal of a school filled with incredible students, dedicated staff, and families who consistently put children first. You have every reason to be proud of your children—they’ve worked hard, grown tremendously, and made this year one to remember.

Our Spring Sports teams are wrapping up their seasons on a high note, and we’re proud of the sportsmanship and effort our student-athletes have displayed. Meanwhile, state testing is winding down, and we’re eager to see our students shine as they demonstrate all they’ve learned.

We invite you to celebrate the arts with us this month:

• The Goetz Choral Concert takes place on May 22nd, and

• The Band Concert will follow on May 28th.

Both promise to be evenings filled with talent and pride—please join us in cheering on our performers.

For our 8th-grade families, June is packed with special events that mark the end of an important chapter:

Class Trip – June 4th

Academic Awards Ceremony – June 9th

8th Grade Carnival – June 16th

Breakfast & Yearbook Signing – June 17th

Promotional Ceremony – June 18th at 3:00 p.m. at Jackson Memorial High School

We’re committed to making these final moments at Goetz Middle School memorable for every student and family. Let’s finish strong and celebrate all that our students have accomplished.

Warm regards,

Mr. Perino

Principal, Carl W. Goetz Middle School
