According to the National Middle School Association, "the purpose and functions of exemplary middle schools center on the intellectual, social, emotional, moral, and physical developmental needs of young adolescents." (Clark & Clark, 1993; National Middle School Association, 1995) Here at Tantasqua Junior High School, we wholeheartedly embrace this philosophy. Great care is taken to provide the positive experiences so crucial to the development of our students.
