James M. Bennett High School would like to welcome a new member to the administrative team for the 2011-2012 school year. John Kotz assumes the position of Dean of Students; he comes to us from Wicomico High School where he served as a technology teacher. He joins Steve Grudis, Principal, Kim Pinhey, Assistant Principal, James Cook, Assistant Principal, and Joe Raffa, Dean of Students. We are proud of the JMB history of excellence and the variety of programs that we provide for our students. They have been recognized consistently at the regional, state and national level for programs such as It’s Academic, Mock Trial, Future Business Leaders of America and Math Team. We are proud of our baseball team and coaches for being the current 3A State Champion. Our school wide objective this year will be to continue to show improvements in three areas: attendance, academics and athletics/fine arts. We also wish to remind students and parents that school begins at 7:45 a.m., and at 2:45 p.m. the school day will end.
Key date: Wednesday, Aug. 24 PTSA Back to School Night 5-8 p.m. At this time forms should be turned in to guidance, parents can pick up Family Portal information and students may get their schedules if all of their paperwork is turned in.

The blurb from WiHi is laughable. Having a son who just graduated and one who is still at WiHi, I am amazed at their comment about wanting parents to be heavily involved! Being in the education world myself, and being an involved parent, WiHi was not cooperative when I tried to be involved, not helpful when my son struggled in a class, and would take days to get back to me when I called or emailed (if I even got a response at all)! If they truly want parents to be involved, then they need to hold up their end of the bargain!
