Testimonials
I believe in being a facilitator of learning and fostering an environment that encourages students to be creative and explore new technologies. As a media specialist, I am committed to integrating the latest technologies into the school environment. With the use of Chromebooks and Promethean boards, students can utilize search engines, QR codes, and digital learning apps to research information, drawing from both digital and print resources.
I have been a member of the Bantam family since August 2008, and for the better part of 16 years, I have been proud to represent the home of the Mighty Bantams! Ours is a proud tradition of academic excellence and student achievement. Our students are intelligent, talented, and eager to explore new learning opportunities offered by our dedicated teachers and staff each day. It has been my honor to serve both as a 7th grade English Language Arts teacher, and now as Curriculum Coach, and I am excited about the many great things to come for our school! GO BANTAMS!
My name is Dr. Kendra Green, and I love everything about Bates Middle School! There is a distinct sense of Bantam pride in the atmosphere. The school spirit at sporting events, recognition programs, and pep rallies is infectiously contagious. Bates alumni parents often reminisce about their own experiences at Bates, proudly passing the torch to their children. As a school administrator, I am committed to creating a positive and nurturing environment where both students and staff thrive.
