Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students:
Welcome to Langston Hughes Middle School. We are glad to have you as part of the Hughes community, and we want to assure you that every one of us will work diligently to help each student experience academic, emotional, social, and physical growth. Middle school is a time of transition for students and therefore families. Our staff is trained to assist students and their families during this time. Hughes houses many programs that ensure a rigorous academic experience for all students. We are one of five International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program schools in Fairfax County Public Schools. Our students feed into a full IB program at South Lakes High School. In addition, we have Honors level courses for students with strengths in specific subject areas. We have also been identified as an Advanced Academic center for students who qualify for Level IV services. We strive to develop knowledgeable, principled, open-minded, caring, balanced risk-takers, inquirers, and communicators. Every class is rigorous and appropriate for the students. Teachers prepare engaging lessons, monitor progress with many types of assessments, and give meaningful feedback to students. Academic and social development continue in the Hughes After-School Program, where students can explore interests, receive academic help, and develop talents. Details of the program can be found on the Hughes website at http://www.fcps.edu/HughesMS/ Langston Hughes Middle School is proud to serve the Reston community in educating and caring for its children. We depend on the support of the community and the many hours of dedication from the parents and families of our students to assist us in our mission of delivering a world class education. Please connect with the PTA to volunteer in any way during the school day or outside of school hours as your schedule permits. I count it a privilege to work together with you on the mission to develop students that are outstanding scholars and productive citizens. We look forward to having you as a part of our community! Cordially, Aimee Monticchio Langston Hughes Middle School Principal |
