We maintain high expectations for all our students and hold a vision that they will leave middle school able to:

Succeed academically
Think creatively
Identify and solve complex and meaningful problems
Know their passions, strengths, and challenges
Communicate and work well with others
Lead healthy lives
Be ethical and caring citizens of a diverse world

White Hill Guiding Beliefs

An understanding of the intellectual, social, physical, ethical and emotional characteristics of the early adolescent is critical to effective learning and teaching in the middle grades

Young adolescents need strong caring and supportive relationships with adults and peers as they increasingly make decisions and choices that affect their lives now and in the future

Student’s need for social interaction and their physical energy are qualities to be engaged and used for learning

Young adolescents are ready to be challenged to contribute in significant ways to society

Involvement of families as partners is critical to the success of our school and our students.
