Posted April 6, 2008

I believe this is the best middle school in the area. The teachers are highly educated and really commit to the education and development of the students. They are constantly adding more sports and clubs and other activities. they promote goal setting and career planning through presentations during lunch where students are invited to listen to guest speakers from the area share their stories about life, education, and how they came to their career status. In addition, they really have stepped up their assistance to students who are at-risk for dropping out. They offer counseling groups, friendship classes, and the WSU gear up program that provides tutors before, during and after school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Washington used the Measurements of Student Progress (MSP) to test students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8, in writing in grades 4 and 7, and in science in grades 5 and 8. The MSP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Washington. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
