compete anywhere in our changing world. The middle school should meet

the ever changing physical, mental, emotional, culture, and social needs

of middle school children. It should provide a transition between the

department environment of the elementary school and the independent

environment of the high school. It should strengthen basic skills, introduce

abstract concepts, and provide opportunities for exposure to a variety of

exploratory subjects. The middle school should create a safe atmosphere

for the success and development of self-reliance and responsibility. As we

strive to meet these goals, we also strive to allow our young people to be

themselves and to grow to their fullest potential.
