Welcome to Open Meadow Middle School
The heart of Open Meadow Middle School’s program lies in developing a positive self-concept and respectful relationships with others. By emphasizing personal responsibility, accountability and decision-making skills, students experience personal and academic success; developing a sense of purpose and a connection to school. From the start, we engage in partnership with parents and families to support our students.
The Middle School serves up to 60 students; classes are designed to engage students with a variety of learning styles and skill levels. Classes average 12 students, allowing for frequent teacher/student interaction. Middle School students work on improving academic skills and changing behaviors in order to promote to the next grade level. Open Meadow Middle School has high expectations for student attendance, academic achievement, and behavior; we provide the supports necessary for success.
Ultimately, Open Meadow Middle School hopes to better prepare students for a high school program. Promotion from Open Meadow qualifies students for admission to any Oregon public high school. Students are also working on meeting the 8th grade benchmarks on state assessments.
