What Makes Our School Unique?
Wright Middle School is striving to be an academically high performing neighborhood school for all students. Our students are actively engaged in instruction daily. We maximize time on task and learning opportunities for our students. We challenge young minds with clear and rigorous academic standards in all subject areas. Students also learn sportsmanship and leadership through various extra and co-curricular activities.
Wright Middle School values the diversity of our students. Each student brings his/her unique cultural background to school. We learn to respect and share differences. Together we create greater community and harmony within our student body. Teachers and administrators use and analyze student performance data to make instructional decisions. Our focus is instruction and student learning results. We promote parent involvement in this marvelous endeavor. All of us want Wright students to open the school door and see their success.
