AURORA MIDDLE SCHOOL

AURORA MIDDLE SCHOOL is a Title I public charter middle school that is part of the AURORA CHARTER SCHOOL school district, located in MINNEAPOLIS, MN with about 188 students offering grade levels from 5th 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 14 teachers, AURORA MIDDLE SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. 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.

AURORA MIDDLE SCHOOL, located at 2103 E 26th St in the Phillips neighborhood of Minneapolis, serves as a focal point for academic development within the local community. The school operates with a commitment to providing a structured middle-level education designed to help students transition from elementary school to the more rigorous requirements of high school. By focusing on a core curriculum that typically includes math, science, language arts, and social studies, the school aims to cultivate both critical thinking skills and the foundational knowledge necessary for long-term academic success.

Beyond standard academics, AURORA MIDDLE SCHOOL emphasizes the importance of social-emotional growth during the formative middle school years. The school environment is designed to be inclusive and responsive to the diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds of its Minneapolis student body. Through various programs and faculty support, the school seeks to foster a safe, engaging atmosphere where students are encouraged to explore their interests, develop personal responsibility, and prepare for their future educational pathways.
