Message from the Principal!
Welcome to the Website of Thomas Middle School. Thomas is one of 4 middle schools serving the city and surrounding areas of Hillsboro Oregon. We have a diverse student body of 560 7th and 8th grade students. In fall of 2006 the Hillsboro community passed a bond measure resulting in three new elementary schools that opened this fall. Construction of a new middle school is approximately half way complete and we look forward to opening next fall. South Meadows Middle School will be the first new middle school in Hillsboro since Evergreen MS opened in 1981. The opening of South Meadows will mean a lot to the Hillsboro School District, especially to the students and families of the Thomas Middle School community. South Meadows MS will be approximately 153,000 sq feet and is designed with middle school best practices in mind. Actual construction began in February 2008, with a projected opening for the 2009 – 2010 school year.
This year JB Thomas has embarked on many changes that seek to personalize the learning environment for all students. From beginning to adopt the IB Middle Years Program, to creating many interventions meant to ensure that kids are learning, Thomas Middle School is changing. Teachers and staff will offer enthusiastic and challenging instruction for students with a focus on interactive and engaging experiences, fostered by team-teaching and a focus on relationships.
Understanding, as we do, that all young adolescents experience amazing cognitive, emotional, and physical growth in the two years they are in middle school, we want to be supportive of the academic, social and emotional growth of our students.
