When students enter the building they are met by a culture of high standards and expectations for success.

Grade levels are divided into "houses" to facilitate an enhanced learning environment, designed with the needs of middle school students in mind.

The entire "TJMS community" helps educate the children. A strong instructional staff challenges students to reach their full potential in all academic areas.

Teachers schedule regular tutoring sessions after school, and parent volunteers assist the teachers in many important roles.

As both a new and old school, our motto, "Exploring our history, enhancing our present, and building our future" is appropriate to the attitudes of the parents and staff members of this inviting school facility.

Vision: Governor Thomas Johnson Middle School is a diverse community of students, educators, support staff, parents and local organizations working collaboratively to provide an academically rigorous education, which includes the technology skills necessary for the 21st century. By holding students, educators and parents accountable for success, we are creating lifelong learners who take responsibility for their own educational goals and positive personal development. Excellence in teaching and learning is paramount to developing productive citizens who have promising and successful lives.
