Middle school is a critical time period where, cognitively, developmentally, emotionally, and socially, students experience growth, challenges, and discovery. McNair Middle School is focused on providing a safe, welcoming environment by developing and maintaining relationships of respect and kindness with our students and families. We believe that authentic partnerships between parents and the school play a vital role in assisting students to achieve his/her own personal excellence in academics and life.
One of the most valuable gifts we can give our students is confidence. Through encouragement and support we strive to provide a safe and fulfilling place for students to transition to young adolescents. The foundation of the McNair culture is our emphasis on building relationships, creating authentic, innovative educational experiences, having a student-centered focus, and developing personalized learning opportunities.
The faculty and staff at McNair are driven by the goal of professional excellence, and each team member takes pride in contributing in the success of our students. We continue to strive for excellence by growing professionally in our knowledge of middle school philosophy and the middle level learners, building a positive and dynamic school culture, rigorous content-area Professional Learning Communities, and elevating our collaborative teams.
The curriculum taught at McNair affords each child academic opportunities for project-based, collaborative and technology-infused learning experiences that are relevant and challenging. We encourage students to take academic risks and learn from mistakes, while we provide the necessary supports.
We thank you for the opportunity to educate and care for your child. We take this honor and responsibility very seriously and will work each day to make their middle school years the best years. We value the input of all parents in improving our school. We welcome your suggestions and feedback. Please feel free to call me at 479-718-0251 or email me at lynn.faught@fayar.net.
