Mission Statement
 
The Valparaiso Middle Schools provide a positive and safe learning environments where students reach a high level of achievement.
In a school climate of compassion, empathy, and respect, students are empowered to take an active role in their own education.
 
We Believe all Students:
  • benefit when the school staff, parents, and community collaborate in the education process.
  • need to be provided a solid academic foundation, which includes communication, research, and technology skills.
  • need skills to adapt, compete, and continue learning in an ever-changing society.
  • need to feel valued and respected as individuals with diverse experiences and backgrounds while developing character, citizenship, and responsibility.
