Vision Statement
Harvest Park Middle School will continue to build on its tradition of providing a smooth transition from elementary to high school. Our supportive school community will guide students to become lifelong, self-motivated learners and leaders who are productive, responsible members of society. The unique needs of our students will be addressed by a wide variety of innovative programs and teaching styles. As a learning community we are committed to developing the whole child by providing a safe environment focusing on academics, arts, attitude, athletics, and activities. The highest expectations for academic success, technological expertise, and moral and civic responsibility will be required of our students as our standards-based curricula prepare them to compete and thrive in a diverse and changing global society.
