Office of the Principal
Welcome from the K-12 Executive Principal
Welcome to the New York Mills Union Free School District 7-12 Principal's Page! I look forward to continue working with all of you to make our school an exceptional learning environment for our students. I am proud to be the principal of a school that is committed to helping students reach their full potential though a partnership with teachers, family and community. The New York Mills faculty is comprised of educators with a passion for their profession, and a willingness to do what is necessary to ensure a child succeeds. This year we are continuing to work to further engage our parents, community and students in reaching high standards of excellence.
As principal, my goal is to make sure every student gets the best education possible in a warm and student-centered environment. Teachers have worked to create a standards-based curriculum that includes lessons that are engaging and meaningful for students. This year we continue the work we began last year focusing on teacher-collected assessment data to use as a basis for identifying areas where improvement is needed and strengthening student skills. Another area of focus this year will be encouraging a proactive, positive culture with our students by asking their opinions and including them in initiatives that they believe are important to continue to grow and emulate "Marauder Pride."
The partnership between school and home is critical to our success. We value our continued involvement in our school community; where together we ensure that the future for all our students is bright. Please consider volunteering to help out the PTSO or Athletic Boosters to become part of our efforts. Finally, do not hesitate to call me at 315.768.8124 or e-mail at mfacci@newyorkmills.org with any questions or concerns.
Thank you for sharing your children with us!
