Stillman Middle School ensures all students have access to a rigorous curriculum in every subject. Several of their 8th-grade students conclude their middle school years with high school credit by passing their End-of-Course (EOC) Biology and English 1 high school state exams at an impressive 100% rate. 

At Stillman MS, teachers are observed on a rotating basis by administrators through walkthroughs and formal observations, receiving feedback to improve lessons, student engagement, and differentiation. The instructional coach meets with each grade level to ensure that lessons are tiered and differentiated to meet the needs of below-grade-level, above-grade-level, special needs, and English learners in each subject area.

The administrative team, counselors, and instructional coach collaborate to help 6th-grade students acclimate to the middle school schedule, transitioning to several teachers and classrooms. As students progress to grades 7 and 8, teachers continue to challenge them with engaging, student-centered lessons that effectively increase literacy across the curricula and enhance numeracy by incorporating math skills in science and elective courses.
