Auburn Middle School, also known as AMS, is a school in Auburn, Maine. It contains grades seven and eight. The AMS mascot is Flash the Falcon, and the school colors are maroon and white.
Students are split up into teams of around 100 students, then into homerooms on those teams, and then even further into advocacy groups. The students only stay in their advocacy groups for a short period of time in the morning. After this activity, the day is divided into academic blocks that vary by team. The U/A (unified arts) schedule rotates from Maroon to White days and these classes change every quarter.

Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or school:
“Unfortunately, life may sometimes seem unfair to middle children, some of whom feel like an afterthought to a brilliant older sibling and unable to captivate the family’s attention like the darling baby. Yet the middle position offers great training for the real world of lowered expectations, negotiation, and compromise. Middle children who often must break the mold set by an older sibling may thereby learn to challenge family values and seek their own identity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
“Cinema, radio, television, magazines are a school of inattention: people look without seeing, listen in without hearing.”
—Robert Bresson (b. 1907)
