CHATHAM MIDDLE SCHOOL

CHATHAM MIDDLE SCHOOL is a Title I public middle school that is part of the CHATHAM CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT school district, located in CHATHAM, NY with about 257 students offering grade levels from 6th 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 22 teachers, CHATHAM MIDDLE SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. 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.

The school is committed to fostering an environment that balances academic rigor with the social and emotional development of students during their crucial middle school years.

Beyond the classroom, the school aims to cultivate a supportive community atmosphere that encourages student participation in various extracurricular activities and character-building initiatives.
