Hello Bulldog Families,

I am thrilled to introduce myself and share how excited I am to be joining the Mesa Linda Middle School team this year! I look forward to working alongside you to ensure that every student has what they need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

A little about me:
 I’m a proud wife and mother of three. I’ve been in education for 20 years, with 14 of those years serving as an administrator. I have a deep passion for travel, reading, and lifelong learning.

My Core Values:

  • Compassion: Everyone is facing their own battles—let’s lead with kindness.
     

  • Communication: Clear, honest communication is the foundation for all success.
     

  • Empowerment: I believe in lifting up students, staff, and families so we can all be our best selves.
     

  • Humility: Each day is a new opportunity—365 chances to grow, reflect, and improve.
     

Our Focus Areas This Year at Mesa Linda:

  • School Culture: We are committed to building a positive and inclusive environment where every student feels safe and valued, knowing they belong.
     

  • Communication: Strong communication between school and home is vital. We’ll strive to keep you informed and welcome your input.
     

  • Family Involvement: When families are involved, students succeed. Your partnership is key, and we’ll be working to strengthen those connections throughout the year.
     

Together, we can make this a wonderful year for our students. I am honored to be a part of the Bulldog family and can’t wait to see what we accomplish!

With gratitude,
Genevieve Johnston
