We want students to make positive contributions to the community.


At Dallas Ranch Middle School:

Ø We are a place that values diversity, where students are active participants and feel a sense of belonging and pride. Aviators learn to be responsible for the success of themselves and others.

Ø Students understand the importance of learning and have a desire to achieve to the best of their ability. They receive support in their academic endeavors and learn to be critical thinkers.


Ø Aviators are well-rounded individuals with opportunities to develop their bodies and minds through sports, clubs, electives, and other extra-curricular activities.

Attention!

Please remind your student/s not to loiter at local businesses after school. It can be a safety issue.
