Mrs. Cherin Hershkowitz Profile Picture.

About Me:

I am very excited to return for another year as Assistant Principal and Magnet Coordinator. I have proudly served the Clemente community for 10 years as a Team Leader, Math Content Specialist, and Administrator here at RCMS. I began my tenure with Montgomery County Public Schools 21 years ago teaching in elementary school and serving students and staff as a Math Content Coach.

My passion is creating authentic and challenging learning spaces where students thrive being their authentic selves and collaborating on innovative ideas.  I love building community in all the grades and content areas with our amazing students and staff here at RCMS.

My husband and I are also proud parents of 3 sons in grades 5 and 7 in MCPS, and I enjoy spending time in their schools supporting their amazing staff as well.

Our diverse and supportive community is our strength at RCMS and I believe we do our best work together as a team! Please reach out to me anytime with questions, feedback, and ways I can support you.
