The Vision of Totem Middle School is for all students to achieve and exceed state learning expectations and develop into citizens who are adaptable in our diverse society with PRIDE in our Learning and POWER in our Actions. 

Totem teachers provide a safe and engaging atmosphere so all students can thrive as learners and be productive members of our community by:

• Collaboratively building our curriculum in alignment with Common Core State Standards,
• Using research-based instruction that is data-driven from common formative and summative assessments that purposefully inform and measure the effectiveness of instruction,
• Being responsive to the learning needs and interests of all students.
