SCMS Principal's Message

Greetings, Tiger Students, Families, and Staff

             Welcome back to the 2024-2025 academic school year!  My name is Dr. Karin Reavis and it is my pleasure and privilege to welcome some and welcome back others to Sussex Central Middle School. To our new and returning students, we are excited to join you in your quest for innovation, exploration, and creativity. The new year brings new possibilities along with new challenges, but we have a dedicated team of individuals here who are committed to riding these waves of changes with you.

             To the families of Sussex Central Middle School, thank you for your continued and unwavering support. We have a lot in store for the upcoming school year. As we all know and understand the proverb that it takes a village, we are depending on you to continue to communicate and collaborate with us to ensure your child(ren) receives the best possible education he/she deserves. This will be fulfilled by using the whole-child approach. We will strive to nurture all areas of our students and their development by honing their social-emotional and cognitive skills.

 We would be remiss not to acknowledge the hard work and dedication rendered by our teachers and staff. Each staff member has played an intricate part in our students’ lives. Although some days were more challenging than others, we continued to show up and show out.

 Sussex Central Middle School’s mission is to encourage and ensure each student we serve maximizes their academic potential. Our theme remains, “Everything we do will be a matter of PRIDE.” Let’s continue to be proud of the work we accomplish. I look forward to continuing our partnership with parents, faculty and staff to provide the best possible education for our students.

 Go Tigers!

 Sincerely,

 Dr. Karin Reavis, Principal
