Dear MAUSD Community:
Please help me welcome Christopher Nichols as the new middle school principal at Mt. Abraham. Mr. Nichols spent many years as a middle school social studies teacher and is currently assistant principal at Marcus High School in Texas. See below for a message from Mr. Nichols.
From Mr. Nichols:
"I am excited to be joining the Mount Abraham school community. What stood out to me about Mt. Abe was a strong sense of alignment - the culture, values, relationships, and the way people show up for one another. Finding the right fit matters, and I have found that here. I’m looking forward to being part of a community that cares deeply about its students and about each other, and to seeing where that shared commitment takes us.
I come to Mt. Abe after more than two decades in education, and while I have had the opportunity to serve in a variety of roles, what matters most to me is simple: building strong relationships, being present, and contributing to a school that feels like a true community - one where students want to be. Outside of school, I’m a father who cares deeply about creating stability and opportunity for my daughter. I enjoy thoughtful conversations, time outdoors, music, reading, and the arts. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be here and look forward to getting to know the students, staff, and families who make this community what it is."
