The teachers, along with the administration, focus upon the individual student, rewarding scholastic achievement with the goal of preparing these students for high school. Platt provides a safe learning environment where students feel secure. A number of scholastic after-school programs , as well as intramural and interscholastic sports programs , round out a student's learning experience. Forward-thinking administration, dedicated staff, and an involved parent community work with the student to achieve success. A separate process for admittance is required.
Middle school is an exciting and challenging time in the lives of children.
Together, we provide an environment of support, encouragement, and expectancy as we direct the academic and social development of our children. The mission of Nevin Platt Middle School is to help each student acquire the skills, knowledge, and attitude necessary to assume a responsible position in our society. Considering the significant changes middle-level students experience, as well as the developmental nature of their education and their surroundings, education for our students must be individualized and personalized. Students need to learn that they are valuable to themselves as well as to others and therefore must take responsibility to achieve in accordance with their abilities. The staff and community of the school will commit their energy, skills, and resources to helping students achieve these goals.
