Principal's Message

Welcome to Pershing Middle School!

As I begin my second year as principal of Pershing, I couldn't be more excited for the 2026–2027 school year. Last year was an incredible year of growth, and this year we are building on that momentum with an outstanding team of educators who are passionate about helping every student succeed.

At Pershing, we believe every child deserves opportunities to discover their passions, challenge themselves academically, and feel connected to their school community. Whether your interests are in athletics, fine arts, advanced academics, leadership, or extracurricular activities, there is a place for you here. Our dedicated staff is committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and engaging environment where students are encouraged to grow both inside and outside the classroom.

What makes Pershing truly special is our people. Our teachers, staff, students, and families work together to create a culture of excellence, pride, and belonging. We celebrate achievement, embrace diversity, and inspire every Panda to reach their full potential.

If you're looking for a school that offers exceptional academic programs, award-winning fine arts, competitive athletics, and a community that genuinely cares about every student, Pershing is the place for you. We are proud of who we are, excited about where we're headed, and we can't wait to welcome you to the Panda family.

Join us and discover why Pershing Middle School is truly one of a kind.

Same Heart. New Era 2.0.
