Principal- Paige Stills

Hello Yorba Linda Middle Bobcat Community, 

It is an honor and privilege to welcome you to the 2023-2024 school year. I am eager to serve the students, staff, and community as Principal of Yorba Linda Middle School. 

Yorba Linda Middle School has an incredible community that is caring, supportive, and committed to serving students. Our mission is to Empower Youth for Future Success. Those are more than just words. Our mission will drive the work that we do together to ensure student success. Our teachers, faculty, and staff are a dynamic community who are here to serve and support your students; it is a responsibility that we are each humbled and honored that our families have entrusted us with. 

Previous to serving as Principal of Yorba Linda Middle School, I served 4 years as high school assistant principal at Valencia High School in the Placentia Yorba Linda Unified School District. I began in the district 12 years ago as a middle school social science teacher and AVID coordinator at Kraemer Middle School. Placentia Yorba Linda USD has been my home and I am honored to be a part of this district. 

This year we will focus on continuing the great traditions of this school, together. Our strong academic programs, support systems, visual and performing arts, STEM program, and school opportunities will ensure that your student grows both academically and social emotionally. Furthermore, it is our commitment that students find connections to their school and feel that YLMS is a safe place where they can learn, grow, and have fun! 

I encourage our families to join the PTSA. Your membership is one way that directly impacts the opportunities offered to students at Yorba Linda Middle School. 

In closing, I look forward to a wonderful school year. Go Bobcats!
