THE RYE MIDDLE SCHOOL
NEW PARENT PORTAL ACCESS
Click on the Parent Portal link on the Middle School home page for helpful information.
MISSION STATEMENT
Middle level education has a purpose all its own. It is not just a link between the elementary school and the high school. Instead, the middle school attends to the unique characteristics and needs of the early adolescent and promotes both academic excellence and the personal/social development of each child.
The Rye Middle School:
- acknowledges the importance of assisting the student in his/her transition from childhood to adulthood;
- assists the student’s transition from the self-contained classrooms of elementary schools to the departmentalized structure of the high school;
- equips the student with the necessary academic skills and personal/social attitudes to succeed in the middle level grades, high school, and beyond;
- stresses the development of the whole child, including self esteem and a sense of personal identity; and
- affirms the importance of school and home communication and cooperation.
The Mission Statement of the Rye Middle School is adapted from the “Policy Statement on Middle Level Education” prepared by the New York State Board of Regents.
INTERSCHOLASTIC ATHLETIC
MISSION STATEMENT
Middle school athletics, an educational, developmental program has a purpose all its own. Middle school students need to explore their athletic interests and strengthen their abilities in interscholastic athletics. The goals of the interscholastic sports program are to provide as many participants as possible with the experience of belonging to a competitive sports team and to develop the athletic abilities of the participants to their highest potential.
