Dear Brunswick Middle School Families~
After 33 wonderful years in education, I have made the decision to retire at the end of this school year.
Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to work alongside countless dedicated educators, staff members, and families, all committed to the success and well-being of the students we serve. It has been a privilege to guide and support thousands of students and staff, and I am proud of the positive impact we have made. While this decision is bittersweet, I am confident that moving on at this point is best–both personally and professionally.
It is my sincere hope that BMS will continue to provide the student-centered, team-based, environment and high-quality education that our students deserve. I am proud of the work we have done at Brunswick Middle School, and have the utmost faith in the incredible staff who will carry on the work we began together. A construction company created the building that is now BMS, but together, the students, staff and administration, built a strong foundation that will now facilitate its continued growth.
I would like to extend my deepest thanks to the many BMS families that have supported our students and me along the way, and to the entire Brunswick Community for the opportunity to serve in this role–I have never worked harder, or devoted so much of myself to the success of an organization.
It was my honor to serve this community and its students. I remain committed to excellence, and wish the same for the Brunswick City School District.
My Deepest Thanks,
Susan T. Palchesko, Brunswick Middle School Principal

- Car riders must arrive prior to 8:00 & go directly to the cafeteria to purchase breakfast.
