Dallas Middle School

Message from the Principal

The Dallas Middle School serves over 700 students with a faculty of approximately 55 teachers and 15 paraprofessional and clerical staff members. Our mission is to provide a rigorous academic program while recognizing the social, physical, and emotional development of the middle school child. Our school community is built on a foundation of hard work, respect, and genuine care for children. We believe our school emits a uniquely positive feeling that allows our students, teachers, parents, and the community to get a sense that they are part of something that has been excellent for a long time and we all feel a responsibility to keep it that way as we continue to grow. The 2011-2012 school year marks my eighth year as a middle school administrator and thirteenth year in the district. The middle school continues to evolve to serve all students well, however, remains consistently committed to children. Best wishes for a safe, productive, school year! ---Thomas J. Duffy, Principal
