PLEDGE TO MIDDLE SCHOOL PARENTS

Our pledge to you is that when you enroll your child in a MNPS Middle School
your child will experience:
•
A warm and inviting school community committed to the intellectual, social,
and emotional development of its students in a physically safe and secure
learning environment; 
An age and developmental appropriate curriculum that is rigorous, robust,
and relevant;
•
Knowledgeable teachers who skillfully use field-tested, research-based,
instructional practices that advance achievement and make learning
interesting, engaging, and exciting;
•
Opportunities for academic acceleration, enrichment, instructional support,
remediation, and social and athletic engagement;
•
Administrators and teachers who understand early adolescent development,
who enjoy working with middle school children, who treat children with
dignity and respect, and who help them learn from their social and academic
experiences;
•
Administrators and teachers who treat parents and designated guardians as
true partners and value working collaboratively with them in support of the
intellectual, social, and emotional development of their children.
