Principal

Greetings Eagle Families! I’m Mr. Davis, the proud principal of Punta Gorda Middle School. I am humbly honored to lead our Eagle community as we focus on high academic achievement supported by engaging, positive learning environments. Middle school is a time of great change in our students' lives and the PGMS staff is committed to preparing students for continued academic success in high school while creating wonderful and lasting memories of their middle school experience.

A little about me. I was born near Telluride, Colorado, and grew up on a farm in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. I worked my way through college as a carpenter and have done everything from waiting tables to training animals. My hobbies range from Mayan archeology to aviation to boating. I graduated in 2001 from Southwest Missouri State University with a Bachelor of Science in Education, and continued my education earning a Master’s in Educational Leadership from Stetson University. After 30 years in the Orlando area and 7 years as a Principal with Orange County Public Schools, my wife and I have happily relocated to Florida’s beautiful West coast. I look forward to forging partnerships with our parents and positive connections with our students as we strive towards the shared goal of academic success and person growth for all students!!

Assistant Principal of Discipline

Assistant Principal of Facilities

Hello Eagles! I am Ms. McLain. I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, where I attended high school and focused my interests in performance arts. I attended Texas State University, where I earned a Bachelor's in Music Education. Later, I returned to the Southern Missouri and Illinois region to teach for 20 years, and during that time performed in the region as a saxophone player and vocalist for a variety of ensembles. I earned a Master's degree in School Administration from Southeast Missouri State University in 2009 and continued to teach high school band, choir, and music theory, before accepting the position of Assistant Principal at PGMS in 2020. I am grateful to have this opportunity to be closer to my family and enjoy an administrative career in such a wonderful community. During my spare time, I enjoy listening to live music, grilling, yoga, and hanging out anywhere near the beautiful waters of the area. Lastly, I am also an avid St. Louis Cardinals fan.......but I do love my Eagles! 

Assistant Principal of Curriculum

My name is Mrs. Woelke and I am excited to S.O.A.R. as an Eagle at PGMS. I am entering my 29th year of education. I have experience as an administrator at elementary, middle, and high school levels. My heart is at the middle level, having taught middle school during my time in the classroom. The middle years are the fun years where every day is adventure!
