About Our School

Bryan Station Middle offers two tracks.

The Spanish Immersion Program, which launched in 1995-96, includes all grade levels (6th-8th Grades), and students throughout the county may apply. Participants spend at least half their day using Spanish in core-content classes. Students have rigorous standards not only in language but also in all subject areas, and they rank high academically compared to others in the district. The goal is for students to be bilingual by the time they graduate. Most students started out at Maxwell, Liberty, or Cardinal Valley Elementaries and continue in the program at BSMS. Our Spanish Immersion staff are great supporters of our students and have high academic expectations.Students will have a Spanish Language Arts and Math class along with an English Language Arts and Math class. Students will also have Social Studies, Science, and two exploratory courses. Students completing our program will advance to the Spanish Immersion Program at Bryan Station High School. Bryan Station Middle is proud to be an International Spanish Academy sponsored by the Education Office of the Embassy of Spain. Click on the icon below to learn more about ISA schools:

Our Traditional Program includes all grade levels (6,7,8) and consists of the students who live in our attendance area.  Students are part of a team where teachers work together to help students grow developmentally and academically.  Most of our students started out at Deeps Springs, Northern, & Arlington Elementaries. Our team teachers are great supporters of our students and will work closely with families.  Our team of teachers have high expectations for students and expect them all to grow.  Students will engage in the following courses: Language Arts, Math, Reading, Science, Social Studies and two exploratory classes. 

We offer a wide range of exploratory offerings. We are committed to the health and wellness of our students and offer 9-week Health & Physical Education classes. Students may also be involved in our Fine Arts program, which consists of Band, Orchestra, Chorus, General Music and Visual Arts. Students may also participate in Computer, Technology, and Engineering (CTE) course: Project Lead the Way (PLTW) course - Design & Modeling (6th grade), Medical Detectives (8th grade) and Energy and the Environment (7th grade); Pre-engineering; Robotics; Family & Consumer Science courses.  Other exploratory options help prepare our students to be college and career ready include Advancement Via Individualized Determination (AVID), Spanish (for traditional students) and Chinese (for traditional and immersions students). 

Schoolwide, we place a priority on student engagement and discourse to grow independent, inquiry-based lifelong learners. Our staff is willing to go the extra mile to remove all barriers to learning so that all our students can succeed at high levels. We also take pride in helping our students mature to be responsible citizens, and we help build character and set goals to achieve their full potential.
