Reid School, accredited with the Northwest Association for Accredited Schools grades K through 12, provides a non-sec­tar­i­an, independent private Middle School for Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Grade students.  Reid School has an es­tab­lished, spa­cious campus suited for both self-contained and de­part­men­tal­ized instruction in a safe environment.

Reid School has earned a reputation for excellence through a commitment to high academic and behavioral standards, and by providing a distinct program for early adolescents that is structured for successful matriculation into high school.  The curriculum has been carefully designed to provide a sound foundation upon which students can build well-adjusted and productive lives.  Com­mu­ni­ca­tion regarding students’ achieve­ment is continuous and mean­ing­ful – with parents and students viewed as partners in the ed­u­ca­tion­al process.

Guided by dedicated, qualified teachers, the expectation at Reid School is that students will exercise self-discipline, orderly living, and respect for people and property.  The faculty and staff support the concept of balance between freedom and responsibility, and they strive to cultivate interdependence as well as individuality in their students.  Students who qualify join the National Junior Honor Society.

Literature Kits are assembled to fucus study on specific authors/illustrators, literature genres, and topical themes.

A philosophy of educational equity is a vital part of the ongoing, daily educational standards at Reid School.  Students participate in a program ded­i­cated to community service as well as share in the pub­li­ca­tion of a campus yearbook and news­paper.  School unity and pride are emphasized at Reid as students develop lasting friendships that continue into the high school years and beyond.

Reid Middle School curriculum continues all the core classes with many more excellent opportunities for students to excel academically, physically, and socially.
