Principal's Message
As Principal of Montauk Junior High School, it is my pleasure to welcome everyone to Montauk. It is our goal at Montauk to have all students, staff, and families feel connected and part of our family.
Our faculty and staff strive to challenge all students to grow academically as well as socially and emotionally in all their classes. We have great teachers who spend countless hours planning and creating lessons to engage our students in a rigorous curriculum. Faculty members utilize best practices and analyze data to gauge how students learn and how best to assist them in understanding the curriculum.
Looking to the future we believe that all students should graduate from a four - year high school and be prepared for a college education and be well on their way to a successful career.
Best of luck for a successful school year.
Sincerely,
Andrew Frank
Principal
