 Here at Timberwood Middle School we envision a school where we:

 Building Relationships:

 Cultivate meaningful relationships with students where a healthy respect is valued and reciprocated.   The feel of the classroom denotes a
 sense of “WE” rather than “me and you.” Students, parents, and visitors will feel welcome within the school. We will create positive classroom
 environments and students will feel safe at all times.

 Engaging Learning Environment:

 Establish routines and traditions to support a learning framework where students are accustomed to the “TMS way .”         “The look” of our
 environment represents the evidence of higher learning through the use of rigorous lessons, technology, and collaboration. We will instruct to
 individual learning styles because we recognize all learners have different needs .

 College Going Culture:

 Create student awareness of their post-secondary opportunities.         We will support the development of self -management skills (time
 management, study skills, goal setting, self-awareness, persistence, AVID strategies) by providing students with the tools needed for college
 success.

 We value every minute of instruction and believe in the importance of building relationships across our campus .

                                                                            PROFILE
