Our Vision

At Boonville Middle, we believe all students deserve a free education, including a challenging curriculum and access to appropriate technology for all. We believe that all students deserve to be surrounded by adults who actively support and recognize their academic and extracurricular efforts. We believe that all students deserve to be held to a high standard academically and behaviorally. We believe that all students deserve appropriate remediation in areas where standards are not mastered.

We believe that all students deserve to leave Boonville Middle with a skill set that equips them to be successful in high school and beyond. We believe that all students deserve the opportunity to earn respect and to improve their behavior and grades. We believe that all students deserve a voice in their education. We believe that all students deserve a safe, structured, and caring environment free of distractions. We believe that our staff should inspire students to meet these goals each and every day.

In our community, individuals strive to live by these core beliefs daily. All adults are positive role models who recognize students' maximum potential and challenge them to live up to it. All teachers are active in the local community and are present every day, prepared with authentic activities, and enthusiastic about teaching all students.
