Middle School
The middle school began construction in 1991 to relieve overcrowding. It was completed in the summer of 1992. Prior to its completion, middle school students attended the high school building. In 2005, a new addition containing science labs was constructed. In 2006, the 5th grade was moved to the elementary buildings, and the middle school developed the philosophy of "teaming". Six teams were developed, two per grade level.
| 6th Grade | 7th Grade | 8th Grade |

Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or school:
“Her little loose hands, and dropping Victorian shoulders.
And then her great weight below the waist, her vast pale belly
With a thin young yellow little paw hanging out, and straggle of a
long thin ear, like ribbon,
Like a funny trimming to the middle of her belly, thin little dangle
of an immature paw, and one thin ear.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“When we were at school we were taught to sing the songs of the Europeans. How many of us were taught the songs of the Wanyamwezi or of the Wahehe? Many of us have learnt to dance the rumba, or the cha cha, to rock and roll and to twist and even to dance the waltz and foxtrot. But how many of us can dance, or have even heard of the gombe sugu, the mangala, nyang’umumi, kiduo, or lele mama?”
—Julius K. Nyerere (b. 1922)
