| contents | Ravenswood Middle School: A Family-Oriented Learning Community Middle Schools Educational Improvement Federal Programs Academic Achievement Educational Indicators Grade 6 Grade 7 Grade 8 Middle School Students Elementary Secondary Education Public Schools Administrators Principals Leadership Ravenswood (WV) Middle School is located on a quiet residential street, adjacent to the high school, the town library, and a community park in the small town of historic Ravenswood, West Virginia. The unassuming exterior of the building belies the school's record of continued academic growth and achievement and the warm, caring environment that it provides for the 344 middle school students in grades 6-8. The school has made adequate yearly progress for four consecutive years and was recognized as a West Virginia Exemplary School in 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. In addition, it was recognized as a Blue Ribbon School in 2008. This article discusses how a family-oriented approach became the key to the school's success. Students, parents, community members, and graduates consistently confirm that the teachers care about and treat every student as an individual. When asked what makes Ravenswood stand out from other middle schools, a group of eighth-grade students agreed with the assessment of a peer who said, "It's the teachers--they know us as individuals and care about each of us." The district's director of elementary and middle schools concurred, "Ravenswood addresses the needs of the whole child; they do whatever it takes to help their students succeed." |
