The North Arlington Middle School is located in North Arlington, New Jersey, just a few minutes from New York City. NAMS is a special place that offers students many exciting academic and extra-curricular opportunities. The school is organized in grade teams so that four teachers work together with a shared group of students. This structure promotes the concept of family and allows students and teachers to develop close relationships with approximately 100 students. Each grade level has one team.
Teams allow every child to known well by adults.
The grade level team is one of the most essential elements of an effective middle school. The teachers meet regularly to discuss and make decision related to the total educational program of the students assigned to their team. Our guidance program meets with teams to address the social and emotional needs of students. Integrated instruction, consistent team rules, and enrichment activities provide a wide variety of learning opportunities for students. It is our hope and intention that our web site will adequately describe our school and its many outstanding programs.
