We are pleased to announce Teresa Shires has been named Shallowater Middle School’s Assistant Principal! Shires has been an outstanding asset in her previous roles at Shallowater Elementary & Intermediate. We’re looking forward to the wonderful things she will bring to SMS!
Shallowater Middle School was honored at last night’s board meeting for their recent recognition as a U.S. News and World Report Best Middle School!

We shared before, but are excited to share again that Shallowater Middle School was ranked one of the Best Middle Schools in Texas by U.S. News & World Report.
Shallowater ranked #131 out of 2,691 Middle Schools in the state. That puts us in the top 4.8%.
Rita Pierson once said, “Every child deserves a champion.” YES, more than one!
And you know what? Every educator deserves a champion too.
Because this work is tough. But it matters. In a big way.
And it’s people. People change the world.
Champion people.
Parents - there’s a National TikTok challenge in which students are instructed to trash the restroom at school. Please have a conversation with your child about respecting their school. It’s not only frustrating to talk with students about vandalism but disheartening.
I remember a teacher telling me: “When you’re surrounded by superstars… it makes you want to be better than you are.” That’s the power of collaboration -- the power of positive peer pressure. The best teachers don’t just inspire their students; they inspire their colleagues.
We had a great day helping all of our great teachers in Shallowater with teacher workday! Looking forward to a great school year. #Familyovereverything
