School Vision
Every student can
learn and every student
will learn

It is the purpose of the school to provide learning opportunities

At
Snoqualmie Middle School we focus on our students' needs through:
* Creating a 6-7-8 bridge between elementary and high school that targets
developmental levels of students.
* Student schedules designed to focus daily on core subject areas (language
arts, literature, social studies, math, science).
* Exploratory courses offering students a variety of experiences in
fitness, health, technology, art, shop, band, choir and extra reading and math practice.
* Staff teaming to monitor student progress, coupled with intervention
programs to address individual academic concerns.
* Program for highly-capable students at all grade levels with an
accelerated focus in math and literary skills.
* Science classes that actively incorporate lab opportunities, discussions
and technology integration.
* Strong special education and Title
1 programs at each grade level with IA support.
* Student leadership opportunities, including Student of the Month
recognition to reward exemplary behavior.
* Involving parents and community members in a variety of volunteer roles. |

Student
achievement has been on an upward trend with students scoring better than the
state average on all three of the core competencies in reading, writing, and
math. The average teacher experience
is 10 years with 65% of staff possessing a master degree or higher. A monthly character trait is the focus for
the SMS Student of the Month recognition program. Monthly traits include: respect,
responsibility, courage, generosity, integrity, kindness, flexibility,
persistence and positive attitude. We
provide opportunities to support students through our full time counselor,
assistance from community agencies like Friends of Youth and Mental Health
Northwest. Snoqualmie Middle School is
in partnership with colleges and universities to support the learning of
student teacher interns. We focus on
learning for all students, staff and parents.
Our Parent Teacher Students Association (PTSA) is an extremely active
group. PTSA membership grew steadily
throughout the year with over 200 registered members. PTSA fundraising efforts support teacher
mini-grants to enhance classroom instruction. |
