Welcome to
Middle School Math!
This year in Middle School Math we will be focusing on several learning standards for each grade level. The standards we will work on are valued as essential learning targets that each student needs to know before continuing to the next grade level.
Grading may look different this year as we are moving towards a Standards-Based Grading system. Grades this year will be based on a 4-point scale. The primary purpose of grading this year is to communicate the achievement status of the student in relation to the course standards/learning targets that have been identified.
