SOUTH HARRISON MIDDLE is a Title I public middle school that is part of the SOUTH HARRISON CO. R-II school district, located in BETHANY, MO with about 292 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.
