December Reflections from Mr. Geoghegan


December Reflections from Mr. Geoghegan

December is usually a time to reflect on what has happened in this past year.  Well, for me, I just want to say how great a start of the school year this has been so far. I relish getting up each and every morning coming in to this fine organization.  The students are awesome.  The teachers and staff are incredible. And the community is just as amazing.  I have been so touched by the dedication and determination of everyone to make sure the Nichols Middle School is a first-class institution for learning.  It has been a joy since my first day.

Mr. McLaughlin and I have started to change little things around the building, and many are paying off in the signs of a better school climate and culture for learning.  We believe the students want to be here and that is our goal.  We are enjoying ourselves and we hope they are as well.

In the grand scheme of things, this isn’t many reflections other than it has been a sensational beginning to the school year and we hope that it continues.

Enjoy the time with family and friends during this holiday break, and as teachers across the globe love to say on this day, “See you next year.”

Have a wonderful holiday from everyone here at NMS; see you January 2, 2013,
M. R. Geoghegan
