Paul Stephens Named MISD Secondary Teacher of the Year 2017

Join us in congratulating SJMS Band Director, Paul Stephens who was named MISD Secondary Teacher of the Year for 2017. Everyone at SJMS is proud to have him represent our school and district as an outstanding teacher. Mr. Stephens has served Scott Johnson as the band director for 17 years and has been in education for 34 years.  

"It is the teacher's job to answer the two profound questions a student subconsciously asks: 'Is this important? and Am I good enough?'  In a master teacher's classroom, these questions seem to completely disappear. The successful completion of each task breeds relevance through the simple act of achievement. When a student experiences the intrinsic reward of accomplishment, therein resides the importance of the task. The artful teacher can make this happen almost entirely through the trust and encouragement built in the relationship."

“I am extremely proud that Region 10 has selected Mitch Curry as the recipient of the Outstanding Principal of the Year Award,” says McKinney ISD Superintendent Dr. Rick McDaniel. Mr. Curry exhibits all of the qualities that MISD looks for in our leaders. His commitment to the students, faculty and staff of MISD is, without question, exemplary in every manner. I am proud to call him one of our own.”

Recipients are nominated and chosen by their peers within their regions for exemplary performance and outstanding leadership. With this recognition, Curry will now be eligible to compete for the state title of Texas Principal of the Year.

Honors and recognition aside, Curry keeps his eyes fixed on the goals of success and belonging for his students. All the high fives and hand shakes are small, but important, efforts to help them get there. “I hope that all students who come through SJMS feel that they are part of our family and that we tap into their hopes and dreams,” he says. “Our mission is to set their dreams in motion and enable them to reach their full potential.

“I am so proud of our accomplishments, but more importantly, I am proud of the relationships that we have made with our students and our community,” Curry says. “I see so many of our students out in our community each week, and I know that we made an indelible impact on their future and their lives.”
