Message from the Principal
Mr. Jay Fike
I am honored to be the Principal of Manatee Middle School, home of the Hurricanes, where we ROAR! ROAR means Respectful-Organized-Accomplished-Responsible. Through these character traits all students grow as learners, leaders, and citizens. Manatee Middle School is a place where we build strong relationships because nobody is successful alone. We believe in teamwork, community, and collaboration. Our staff models these behaviors every day to provide the best educational experience for your children. Our teachers are a dedicated group who strive to make student learning challenging, fun, and engaging. Parents and families, we encourage you to get involved in our school community too. Together we make each day better!
