About Our School

Thurgood Marshall Middle School opened its doors in the
fall of 1994. Through a yearlong “Design Team” planning process involving
staff, administrators, parents, community members and students, a comprehensive
plan was developed to create a middle school experience based on best practice
for the most effective learning environment for middle level students. The
elements included in that original plan that still endure today are:
- Connecting curriculum and instruction to real life
- Integrating opportunities for community service and learning responsible citizenship
- Strong parent-school communication
- Integrating technology as a learning tool
- Challenging instructional programs
Additionally, staff at TMMS focus extensively on formative
assessment practices, meet regularly in Professional Learning Communities, and
focus on the creation of classroom environments that foster and nurture growth
mindsets in students.
