The Diamond Scholars Academy
The Diamond Scholars Academy is our traditional learning program that engages middle level students with high quality, technology rich instruction in a traditional learning environment.
Technology
Dent Middle School incorporates a 1:1 ratio for student devices. This means your student is assigned a Chromebook for the duration of the school year. This device gives students access to the most up-to-date educational applications and an opportunity to learn and gain the skills in technology that are needed in today's world and workforce.
Relationships
The Diamond Scholars Academy places a high value on relationships. This includes relationships between students and teachers, students among themselves, and our entire school with the community. Students are given the opportunity to serve in the community, take on leadership in student government, and develop talents and skills through specialized classes and after-school clubs.
College Bound!
The Diamond Scholars Academy believes in the amazing potential of each student to succeed in life and in future careers. To that end, teachers emphasize college awareness and preparation through the AVID program. AVID teaching strategies are used throughout the school, and students are also able to take AVID as a co-curricular class.
