MILAN MIDDLE SCHOOL

Milan Middle School is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Milan Community Schools school district, located in Milan, IN with about 139 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 17 teachers, Milan Middle School has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Milan Middle School, located at 609 N Warpath Dr in Milan, Indiana, serves as a central hub for adolescent education within the Milan Community School Corporation. The school is deeply rooted in a community famously known for the "Milan Miracle"—the 1954 state basketball championship that inspired the film *Hoosiers*. Reflecting this local spirit, the school maintains a strong emphasis on community values, athletic engagement, and academic growth for students in the middle grades.

The facility provides a structured environment focused on transitioning students from elementary foundations to high school readiness. By prioritizing a mix of core academic curriculum and extracurricular opportunities, Milan Middle School aims to foster both intellectual development and personal character. As part of a smaller, tight-knit school district, the institution is recognized for its collaborative atmosphere, where educators and staff work closely with families to support the social and educational needs of the local student population.
