SMS Hall Structure

At Shaker Middle School, each student is assigned to one of four halls:

• Algonquin

• Haystack

• Skylight

• Wright

Within each hall, students work with a hall principal and counselor assigned to that hall. The hall principal is responsible for the daily administrative tasks of your hall. The hall principal will be happy to assist you in any way they can. One of the hall principal’s main tasks is to support you in making good decisions. If you have problems in one of your classes, you may be referred to the hall principal. The principal will work with a student to modify existing conditions as needed and help resolve the situation. Another very important person you will meet is your school counselor. The counselor will help you plan your school career, and, more importantly, is always available to discuss challenges or concerns you may have. Our counselors work with the middle school Math, Science, Social Studies and English teachers (within their respective halls) to provide continuity while the students are attending the middle school.
