The mission of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School community is a commitment to working together to eliminate the racial predictability of student achievement.
We have a strong belief in the power of education and that all students can achieve academic success which allows us to inspire and guide students to be lifelong academic leaders and thoughtful citizens who are committed to improving themselves, their community, the country, and the world. Our vision is to be the best middle school in the nation at providing an education that helps every student in our community reach their full potential.
Respect - Showing consideration and appreciation for ourselves, others, and the environment.
