Barrington Middle Level School has hosted many educators
seeking to learn from the professionals in the school and to see effective
practices in
action. BMS is involved with teaming, flexible scheduling, standards
based instruction, appropriate grouping practices, looping, smaller teams,
interdisciplinary instruction, multiple intelligences, active hands-on
classrooms, and parent involvement. These are but a few of the schools
outstanding qualities. Permeating the school’s culture and environment
is a deep concern for and understanding of the young adolescents you
serve.
Barrington Middle School first received the NELMS Spotlight School Award in 2002, and its award was renewed in 2005.
