The Power of Community

At Explorer West Middle School, our community is our strength. Our faculty, staff, board of trustees, families, and alumni work collaboratively to deliver on our mission of academic excellence and character growth.

Families: A Spirit of Engagement

From stepping into roles like Class Connectors, Admissions Ambassadors, and Dance Committee members - to helping at events like Grandparents' Day and First Fridays - to participating in Parent/Guardian Education events and Circles - and more - families enjoy a wide selection of opportunities to stay engaged throughout the year.

Alumni: Falcons Forever

Our graduates go on to achieve great things, thanks to the solid foundation they receive at Explorer West. High schools consistently praise our students for their preparedness, confidence, and love of learning. As a part of our community, your child will be set on a path to success.

Our relationship with our students doesn't end with Commencement. Alumni remain valued members of the Explorer West community. They return often - to visit, volunteer, attend reunions and other events, and even to work or serve on our Board. Once a Falcon, Always a Falcon!

 

Faculty and Staff: Experienced Guides

Explorer West teachers are middle school experts. They choose to work with this age group for all its unique joys, rewards, and challenges. Our teachers and staff serve as mentors and coaches - setting high expectations, holding accountability, and believing in every student's ability to reach their full potential.

Our students like and trust their teachers. This creates a sense of safety that gives students confidence to take risks, make mistakes, and be themselves.
