Welcome to Tampico Middle School
Who are we?
Prophetstown, Lyndon, and Tampico communities have
combined to form a unified school district.
The district consists of Prophetstown Elementary,
Tampico Elementary, Tampico Middle School, and
Prophetstown High School.
The district has a student population of slightly over 1,000.
Tampico Middle School has an enrollment of about 235 students.
Our Middle School Vision
We recognize that the focus of a middle school is to meet the educational as well as the personal, social, and physical developmental needs of young adolescents. In an effort to provide the best educational climate possible, we have addressed these developmental needs and established the following ways that our school can respond to them:
- Create an atmosphere of positive social interaction between students and staff, as well as students and their peers.
- Establish clear expectations and consequences for inappropriate behavior.
- Provide a diversity of activities and rewards to ensure the probability of success ofr all students and to provide for creative expression.
- Integrate learning throughout the curriculum.
- Encourage meaningful participation in family, school, and community activities.
- Provide structured outlets for physical energy.
Extra Curricular Activities
Tampico Middle School feels that an individual’s educational experience can be greatly enhanced by participation in activities outside of the classroom. Therefore, Volleyball and Basketball are offered for 7th and 8th grades. 6th, 7th, and 8th grades are given the opportunity to participate in Band, Chorus, Quiz Bowl, Football, and Track. We encourage students to be involved in one or more of these activities.
Our Future
This is a very exciting time for Tampico Middle School. At present time the district is planning the construction of a new middle school in Prophetstown. Groundbreaking will begin April of 2012. Classes will be held in the new building beginning 2013-2014 School Year.
We look forward to this new adventure, and continuing the academic excellence experienced at present.
