Our recently remodeled Aurora Middle School provides educational opportunities for students in grades six, seven, and eight, of the Aurora School District. Aurora Middle School is located just to the south of Aurora High School, separated only by a circle drive that allows ease and accessibility for picking up and dropping off students by passenger vehicles. Aurora Middle School, enrollment of approximately 300 students, averages about 100 students per grade level.

Students within the Aurora Middle School, enjoy an eight period schedule which consists of core courses of Math, Science, English, Reading, and Social Studies, as well as a variety of exploratory and elective courses. In addition to their eight class periods, students begin their day with a 16 minute advisor / advisee program called TNT. TNT (Time and Togetherness) provides and opportunity for classroom instruction that focuses on the academic and social needs of students. Class sizes will range from 16-18 students.

A direct spin-off from our TNT program is our Middle School Club Activities. Through these Club Activities, students are provided with unique opportunities to explore a variety of social, academic interests and hobbies that may become life long interests.

A staff of 31 classroom instructors enjoy providing instruction to our Middle School students. Within the group of 31 instructors, several instructors also teach high school or elementary classes. As we share instructors, we also share facilities including a very large and attractive Media Center that is conveniently located for all students in grades 6-12.

Mr. Ken Thiele, has been the Principal at Aurora Middle School since 1992.
