Principal's Message

Dear McNicol Families,
Welcome back to what promises to be a dynamic and empowering school year at McNicol Middle School—where we are One Band, One Sound, One McNicol: United in Purpose, Unstoppable in Progress.
We are thrilled to begin the year with renewed energy and exciting new opportunities for our students. This year, we proudly introduce Leader in Me, a whole-school transformation model that equips students with essential life and leadership skills. This initiative is rooted in the belief that every child has the potential to lead and thrive when given the tools to succeed.
As a STEM and Pre-Engineering Magnet School, McNicol continues to offer a truly unique educational experience. Our program provides hands-on, future-focused learning that prepares students for success in the 21st century. Our elective options reflect this commitment to innovation and creativity and now include:
· Aeronautical Science (Drone Technology)
· Art
· Culinary Arts
· Dance
· Financial Literacy
· Journalism and Media Studies
· Law Studies
· Peer Counseling
· Robotics
We strongly believe that a child’s academic and social success is amplified when families are actively involved in the school community. We encourage you to partner with us by joining our School Advisory Council (SAC), School Advisory Forum (SAF), or Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). Your voice matters, and your involvement makes a lasting impact.
Let us work together to ensure that every student has the support, guidance, and encouragement they need to reach their full potential. Here at McNicol, we are more than a school—we are a united community dedicated to excellence.
We cannot wait to see what this year holds!
Warm regards,
Deirdre Benka-Coker, Principal
