Welcome to Boone Middle School!

The teachers, students, and staff of Boone Middle School welcome you to our school website. Boone Middle School currently serves 672 students, grades 5-8. We invite you to explore our website thoroughly as it will provide you with a glimpse of the many opportunities available to our students and parents.

Our goal at Boone Middle School (BMS) is to provide the highest quality educational program possible to each student who enrolls in our school. The core of our district and building mission is to “promote academic and extra-curricular excellence.” We sincerely believe that our students’ positive attitudes and solid work ethic will consistently contribute to the successes they attain while attending Boone Middle School.

BMS has much to offer its students. Our beautiful, technology rich, wireless facility has fully wireless access and spacious classrooms. The middle school teachers operate as a team to provide a variety of resources and supports for the unique needs of each individual student. Every grade level team of teachers meets daily to design instruction, support student success, and prepare weekly communication updates for parents on student on upcoming assignments, projects, and assessments. This team approach between teachers and parents helps parents guide children as they navigate through their middle school years. Our compassionate and student-centered staff encourages students to make the most of their educational opportunities.

We offer many extra-curricular activities for the students to become involved at BMS. Whether students are interested in band, orchestra, chorus, swing choir, jazz band, drama, yearbook, TSA (Technology Student Association), Lego-league, FIRST Tech, student council, cheerleading, or athletics, there is something for everyone!

The students are truly the heart and soul of this school. They are the focus of our educational program, and we have high expectations for the skills, abilities, and potential we know they possess in becoming productive students and community members. Positive Behavioral intervention Supports (PBiS) is also infused in our daily school routine in conjunction with Character Counts! This cooperative effort between students, parents, staff, and community supports our mission, which includes “the development of good character in our students. This approach makes our school one in which we take great pride.
