Cleveland Junior High School offers all the opportunities of a large school in an intimate small-school setting.  At Cleveland, teachers truly get to know their students in a caring environment that promotes achievement and celebrates diversity.  Cleveland’s focus is on meeting each student’s individual needs through a variety of programs.  A low student-teacher ratio ensures all students get the individual instruction they need to thrive.  About Us

Beginning in fall 2008, Cleveland will be home to the district's only junior high level aerospace program, a continuation of the popular and successful aerospace program at Farnsworth Elementary.  For more on this exciting program, see Farnsworth Aerospace Elementary.

A big thank you to Jesse Jahnke and Zong Vang with Get Ready for planning Career Day and making it run so smoothly.  We were thrilled to have 100% of our 50+ volunteers show up today.  There was a spectacular performance from the 3M orchestra to start the day.  Every classroom had 3 career speakers and a visit from a US bank representative to speak with them about finances.  Our Career Speakers came from a wide variety of professions.  We heard such encouraging comments from several staff and kids. Volunteers mentioned to me how impressed they were with the kids' good behavior and thoughtful questions. Read more
