“Greatness is not in where we stand, but in what direction we are moving.”
Oliver Wendell Holmes 

Wow! This school year is moving quickly. Lorena Middle School has gotten off to a fantastic start. Thank you to the faculty, students, parents and community for helping with this great start. We are at record enrollment this year. The 5th and 6th grade classes are nearly 150 each. This is a great challenge to have. I am enjoying getting to know all of our new students.

Teaming Up for Greatness is our goal at Lorena Middle School and in the Lorena Indpendent School District. Let's make 2011-2012 even better than last year. My door is always open.  
As we work together toward greatness, please do not hesitate to let us know what we can do to make Lorena Middle School even better.

Sincerely,
Celia A. Drews, Ed.D.
