| Our Mission: Our middle schools and junior high schools will inspire each learner to develop intellectually and individually in a caring community where everyone is important, productive and safe. |
We are committed to high expectations for
our students and educators.
As educators we believe:
- Middle school should be about everyone’s growth.
- It is our responsibility to model and teach the importance of life-long learning and positive, constructive behavior.
- It is our responsibility to teach students to be citizens of the world.
- It is our responsibility to promote celebrating and appreciating our diversity.
- All children can learn.
- It is our responsibility to create teams of students and teachers who support, encourage and nurture each individual to achieve his/her full potential.
- Middle school should be an academic bridge that takes students from their self-contained elementary experience to their more departmentalized junior high experience.
At Smithton you can expect:
- A challenging curriculum
- A program which allows students to explore old and develop new interests
- Educators trained and excited about working with middle school children
- Educators certified in their areas of instruction
