A Great Place to Learn and Grow

Whole child

Our Mission

  • The mission of August Boeger Middle School is to present our students with a safe learning environment that promotes academic success through social-emotional learning, critical thinking, and problem solving. We strive to build strong relationships and create responsible, productive students in a global society.

AVID & the Community School Approach

  • August Boeger Middle School is an AVID and Community School that provides students with academic programming and an integrated support network designed to help them be successful in high school and beyond. AVID stands for Advancement Via Individual Determination, and is an elective course and school-wide strategy to prepare students for college. AVID courses and strategies are based on rigorous standards and focus on critical reading, writing, collaboration, and organization. AVID students learn how to set goals, manage their time, and take notes. There is an academic support system available to students, including tutoring.

    In response to the growing challenges facing students' learning and human development, AB has become a Community School. The Community School supports the whole child's needs by providing increased and strengthened social-emotional support. The new AB Wellness Center is staffed by a Wellness Coach and two social emotional counselors during the school day. There is a social emotional coach who pushes into alternating classes to lead exercises intended to calm and ground students before the lesson begins. Supporting students inside and outside the classroom is a commitment by the school to their success.

    August Boeger Middle School offers students quality academic programming, as well as a social emotional support system. 

The Bobcat Way

  • BE SAFE, BE RESPECTFUL, BE RESPONSIBLE 

    Students are expected to learn and follow all school and classroom rules and demonstrate appropriate
    social skills when interacting with both adults and peers.

    1. BE SAFE
    • I am responsible, like everyone else, for maintaining safety at school.
    • I help maintain a clean and safe campus that is free of graffiti, weapons, and drugs.
    • I report any bullying or harassment.
    • I avoid conflicts and physical or verbal violence.

    2. BE RESPECTFUL
    • I treat others the way I want to be treated.
    • I respect laws, rules, and school authorities.
    • I treat people fairly and respect their rights.

    3. BE RESPONSIBLE
    • I take responsibility for my actions.
    • I choose how I respond to others.
    • I come to school regularly and on time, ready to learn.
    • I help to create a positive school environment.
