Principal's Message

Welcome to Coeburn Middle School

Welcome to a new school year at Coeburn Middle School! Whether you're a returning family or joining us for the first time, I want you to know how proud and excited I am to lead this incredible school—especially as someone who once walked these same halls as a student.

This community means everything to me. Growing up here shaped who I am, and it’s a full-circle moment to now serve as principal of the school that gave me so much. I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make Coeburn Middle a place where every student feels seen, supported, and challenged to grow—academically, socially, and emotionally.

I want CMS to be more than just a school. I want it to be a place where students feel safe, families feel welcome, and the entire community feels connected. From the classroom to the cafeteria to the athletic field, we’re working hard to create an environment where students can thrive and families can be proud.

As we begin this new year, I invite you to be part of what we’re building at CMS. Strong schools are built on strong relationships, and I truly believe our best years are ahead of us—because we're building them together.

Thank you for trusting us with your children. It’s an honor to serve this school, this town, and this next generation of Coeburn leaders.

With gratitude,
Deventae T. Mooney, Ed.S
Principal
