We share the vision that the positive achievement of our students is our top priority. All of our efforts are directed toward providing a school where everyone is given the opportunity to grow and expectations are high. We are committed to working together to create an environment where teachers can teach and where students can learn. We will continue building a school culture in which all of us promote healthy self-esteem and in which students and staff develop loyalty, respect and appreciation for each other. Recognition programs designed to acknowledge and encourage student efforts and contributions are part of the school program. Certificates, rewards, school shirts, special activities and trips, positive notes and calls are part of what is done to let students know that they are important. Livingston Middle School is committed to providing focused instruction and support to encourage curiosity and promote innovation to help students succeed. As a means of achieving this, staff collaborates and focuses on student needs.
