Student Life
As of 2008, Issaquah Middle School has a WEB "Where Everybody Belongs" program which assists incoming sixth graders to adjust to the new environment of middle school. Since 2005, the school is involved in the Green Schools Program of King County, Washington which was adopted by the Issaquah School District to reduce outgoing waste from the school by increasing recycling and decreasing the usage of the garbage dumpster. Specifically, Issaquah Middle decreased its collection frequency/size of garbage dumpster saving nearly $17,000 when combined with the totals of four other Issaquah district schools.

“Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life:
Such a Way as gives us breath:
Such a Truth as ends all strife:
Such a Life as killeth death.”
