ABOUT US
Clinton Middle School (CMS) serves nearly 350 sixth through eighth graders in the Clinton School District. Our staff is composed of approximately thirty certified staff members, a counselor, social worker, nurse, paraprofessionals, and office staff.
At CMS, we are dedicated to challenging each student through rigorous curriculum to reach their full potential. Our teachers use innovative lessons to create an environment in which students think critically and explore the world around them. Students are immersed in core curriculum as well as several elective offerings. These offerings include: band, choir, FACS, digital media, STEM, art, technical school rotations, life and health education, and gifted education.
Character education lessons are also taught as the CMS staff helps meet students’ emotional development. Groups such as Bright Futures and PTO add additional layers of emotional and personal support for students. Over 80% of our students are also involved in our co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. Some of our offerings include: band, choir, football, volleyball, softball, cheerleading, boys and girls basketball, wrestling, track, archery, science olympiad, NJHS, and student council.
