Colina Middle School Working Hard, Making Friends, Having Fun! Go Cougars! Balance is the key to success and an important piece to becoming a well rounded individual. Cougar Pride!

It is my hope you find middle school to be filled with challenges that stretch you and help you grow as parents and children. I have spent the bulk of my career in education here at Colina and in that time I have enjoyed the company of a dedicated group of teachers and staff. Collectively we challenge each other to find balance between rigorous curriculum and building relationships. My wife also shares a passion for education and is a 2nd grade teacher in our district . Together we share three children: two boys and a girl that keep us busy and help focus us on the important things in life, our family. Outside of school, I really enjoy the one thing we don’t seem to have enough of… TIME; TIME with our kids, TIME with my wife, TIME with friends and TIME to reflect on the bigger picture. I am always looking forward with a focus on serving this school community. I also look forward to meeting you and sharing spending TIME learning about your amazing family. Middle school represents three formative years, let’s make them count… together!
