At California Middle School, students, faculty, parents, and visitors work as a caring community. We value diversity and promote a “can do” spirit. We demonstrate these values as we maintain a welcoming, helpful, clean, and safe environment for all of our students. We also believe that it takes an entire community to raise and educate a child. Therefore, we encourage partnerships with the community and parents.

We value all stakeholders as critical in the education of our students. Frequent expressions of such support will encourage our students to do well and will go a long way in promoting their achievement in school. Parents can help by assisting our children with the understanding that we all expect their best effort. Parents are also encouraged to participate in our PTSA, ELAC and other decision-making councils. Through a culture of shared responsibility, we support the learning of all students here at California Middle School.
