We are happy to have you as a member of this wonderful learning community. You will have many opportunities to grow and learn at the Middle School and we look forward to working together with you and your family to provide a positive learning experience. You will be given the opportunity to develop positive relationships with the middle school students and the staff. We encourage you to become an active member of the school. We wish you happiness and success in the coming school year and in the future.
The diversity and uniqueness of the middle school student is well documented. Students come in all shapes and sizes. The middle school student will experience rapid growth and change intellectually, emotionally, socially as well as physically. The student population at any one grade level may be of the same age but vastly different from one another. The North East Middle School provides a positive environment for students to transition from childhood to adolescence.
