| Sanchez Middle School embraces Collaborative and Cooperative Learning wherein groups of students engage in positive interdependence, individual accountability, interpersonal skills, face-to-face interactions, and critical thinking. Group learning promotes communication, trust, leadership, decision making, and conflict resolution. Our campus embraces ongoing opportunities to maintain a positive and productive atmosphere, meet individual students' needs, and strive for excellence. We expect great things from one another. Sanchez is a TEA Exemplary School in 2010 and was a Recogized School in 2004 and 2007. We attribute that sucess to the hard work and dedication of our faculty and staff, who are well experienced at focusing the energies of our students. By creating engaging projects, our teachers instill the love of learning in our students, while preparing them for the demands of high school. Our exploratory middle school program allows students to take a variety of academic and extracurricular courses. In addition to the core curriculum, our students are offered electives in choir, band, art, mariachi, orchestra, and theater arts. With the assistance of teachers and counselors, Sanchez eighth graders develop a graduation plan that reflects our students' needs and their interests.Additionally, our faculty engaged in a campus-wide mentorship program for at risk students. |
