Dear Rye Middle School Community,

I am honored to be serving as Principal at Rye Middle School. Over the past six years, I have worked closely with students, parents, and Rye community members to develop positive relationships with all school stakeholders.  It is also an honor to be leading the dedicated and dynamic staff of RMS. Their passion for learning and emphasis on the whole child creates an environment where students thrive and feel safe. 

I look forward to upholding the rich academic tradition at Rye Middle School and addressing the challenges that this upcoming year presents. I plan on guiding our staff with instructional strategies that engage students to think critically, communicate effectively, collaborate with others, and solve problems creatively.  My goal is to create an environment where the students find learning meaningful, and the staff have opportunities to grow in their craft and reflect on their practice.  I welcome the opportunity to reconnect or meet with you to discuss your child’s education. 

I am confident that, by working together as a team of students, parents, and staff, we can help our students grow to be responsible and caring citizens in the Rye community and in the broader world beyond.  I look forward to working with you. 

Sincerely,

Joseph DiGiovanni 

RMS Principal
