Welcome to Moreland Middle School!

As the newly appointed Principal of MMS, it is my privilege to extend a warm greeting to all members of our school community. Whether you are a parent seeking the best educational opportunities for your child, a student taking initiative and checking out our school, or a community member invested in the success of our school, we are thrilled that you are here!

At MMS, we are deeply committed to providing an exceptional educational experience that nurtures the intellectual, social, and emotional growth of every student. Our dedicated team of educators and staff members create a safe and inclusive environment where students feel valued, supported, and inspired to achieve their full potential.

We believe that education is a collaborative endeavor, and we encourage open lines of communication between our school and our families. To that end, you will receive an email from the Moreland School District in the middle of July giving directions about how to access the Aeries Parent Portal.  One of the benefits of this program is that parents are able to complete the annual required documents online before the school year starts. If your child’s demographic information changes during the year, please update Aeries Parent Portal so that we know how we can best stay in contact with you.  

As a middle school, we understand the unique needs and challenges that students in this transitional phase of their lives may face. Our comprehensive curriculum provides a well-rounded education, encompassing academic excellence, character development through the Second Step program, and the cultivation of critical thinking skills. Through engaging instructional strategies, innovative programs, and a diverse range of extracurricular activities, we strive to empower our students to become lifelong learners and responsible citizens.

Our website serves as a central hub for information about MMS. It is designed to be a valuable resource for parents, students, and community members, offering access to the latest news, important announcements, academic calendars, curriculum details, and information on upcoming events. We encourage you to explore our website regularly and stay connected with us as we work together to provide an enriching and supportive educational environment.

There are many ways for parents and guardians to volunteer at MMS. This includes those who work fulltime and those with more flexible schedules. If you are interested in becoming a parent volunteer or joining our MMS Home and School Club, please email me at [email protected]. 

While I am new to Moreland Middle School, I have been a member of the Moreland Community for 27 years, most recently as the Director of Educational Services at the district office.  I am so excited to be back at a school site, interacting with MMS Mustangs on a daily basis, and look forward to getting to know each of them personally. 

Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or ideas you may have. Your input and collaboration are invaluable as we strive for continuous improvement and excellence.

I look forward to working with you!

Theresa Molinelli, Ed.D.
