Welcome to CMHS! We’re glad you are here!

Dear Clatskanie Middle/High Students and Families,

It is with great excitement and honor I write this letter of introduction to you as the new Principal at Clatskanie Middle High School.  I am honored to have the opportunity to lead a school with such persevering students, an extremely dedicated staff, and a supportive school community.  I feel very fortunate to be part of this school and to support the students and families. I understand that our students and families have endured a lot over the past year, however this is a NEW YEAR that will bring new experiences and opportunities for our students to achieve the highest level of success. 

I have been dedicated to the field of education for more than twenty-eight years.  I have worked with students ranging in age from Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade in a variety of roles. I have worked as: Math teacher, elementary teacher, Assistant Principal, Principal and District Level Administrator.   I am thrilled to bring my skills as an educational leader to CMHS and to work with you as a partner in education to ensure your child's success.

I am proud to be part of the Clatskanie School District, one that values high standards by providing rich learning experiences for all students. We value your involvement and support in your child’s education, and would like to extend a yearlong invitation to join us at any school activities and events.  My door is always open.

I view education as a life-long process and expect that I will continue to learn much about the uniqueness of Clatskanie this year and in the years to come.   Most importantly, I bring a belief that students are at the center of all school-related decisions.  I am excited to unite my experience, my openness to learn, and my student-centered approach to support our students.  Because the relationships between families and the school are vital to the success of our students, I encourage you to become involved in every way possible.  I look forward to meeting you soon!  

Sincerely,


Dr. Jeff Williamson
