Starmount Middle School will empower each student to achieve personal success academically, socially, and emotionally through the collaborative efforts of all stakeholders.
We are committed to building a culture of high expectations where each person is individually and collectively responsible for enabling academic, social, and emotional growth in an ever changing world. An atmosphere of mutual respect will support students as they actively discover the tools and resources necessary to be successful.
