Dear Johnson Creek Community Members, Parents and Students:
I want to extend a warm welcome to the Johnson Creek High/Middle School. The middle/high school years are very important in a child's life as they learn new skills and begin looking at post-secondary options, whether that be a four year college, technical college, the military, or the workforce. Personalized learning is now a focus for all K-12 students. This allows our students to work at their readiness level, rather than grade level. We as educators need to ask ourselves what our goal is. Is it to get through content, or for students to learn and achieve mastery? At Johnson Creek HS/MS, students have the opportunity to demonstrate mastery at any time throughout the course. We understand that students learn at different rates and in different ways. Our primary goal is to create life-long learners.
"Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it." - Mariam Edelman
As the principal of Johnson Creek Middle/High School, I believe it is my responsibility to continue to foster a collaborative and supportive environment for all. I look forward to working with each and every one of you. My office is always open if you have any questions or concerns.
Dr. Neil O'Connell
Principal
