Greetings from the Pirate Ship!
Lockport Middle School is changing in the best possible way. Our students, faculty, and staff are some of the best around, and I don’t just say that as their principal, but as a member of this wonderful community. Every morning our students recite our motto—Honor and Heart Set Us Apart. We not only recite it, but we live it. We strive to make each day better than the next. As the principal of this school, my goal is to provide the most productive learning experiences for our students academically as well as socially. I am a proud Pirate and look forward to many years of serving this amazing school.
Dr. Decina Rodriguez, Principal
