Martinsburg High Welcome Toolkit

Welcome to Our School

Dear Bulldog Community,

Welcome to Martinsburg High School, where for 140 years we have prepared students for the next step in their lives. At MHS, our motto is “Enter to learn and go forth to serve,” and we work each day to bring that to life with purpose, progress, and pride.

Our mission is clear:

  • Martinsburg High School will work collaboratively with all students, parents, and community members to ensure the success of every student.

  • We are accountable for the learning and achievement of every student.

  • We can achieve with integrity.

  • We believe respect for self, others, and school creates a safe environment for learning.

Our staff is committed to living out this mission daily. We encourage all students to find their purpose here by getting involved in our many extra-curricular and co-curricular activities. Research shows that students who are actively engaged in their school community experience greater academic progress, and we want every student to benefit from that opportunity.

Thank you for trusting us with your students. It is our privilege to guide them as they learn the knowledge, skills, and character they need to serve others and step into the world with pride. Please feel free to contact us at 304-267-3530 or by email at Maranda Lynch with any questions.

With Bulldog Pride,
Maranda Lynch, Principal

Where to Take Your Questions & Concerns

Berkeley County Schools values open and respectful communication to ensure questions and concerns are addressed quickly and effectively.

Safety concerns should always be reported immediately to the school principal or law enforcement. Staff, families, and community members are also welcome to share concerns with the Board of Education; these concerns will first be directed to the appropriate staff member, department, or the Superintendent for resolution. We believe the most effective communication happens directly—by phone or email—rather than on social media. To connect with the right person as quickly as possible, please use the staff directory or the chatbot feature on our website.
