🎉 NATIONAL PRINCIPALS MONTH | CAPE FEAR MIDDLE SCHOOL

At Cape Fear Middle School, Principal Bobby Simmons has worked to build something bigger than a school, a place where students and staff feel like family.

That sense of belonging is an important part of the culture at CFMS, where Mr. Simmons has emphasized relationships while maintaining high expectations for students. The goal is for students to walk through the doors each day feeling safe, challenged and welcomed.

Those who know Mr. Simmons also know there’s plenty of personality behind the principal’s desk. He’s known for his sense of humor, for being willing to jump in wherever he’s needed and even for firing up the grill for his staff.

It’s all part of an approach to leadership built around people, supporting teachers, connecting with students and creating a school community where everyone feels they have a place.

Throughout National Principals Month, we’re getting to know the people behind the principal’s desk and celebrating the leadership they bring to our schools each day.

Thank you, Mr. Simmons, for all you do for the Cape Fear Middle School family! 💙💛 YouTube Link - https://youtube.com/shorts/5_CT3XdgJYs
