History & Facts

Historical

In November, 1992, Indian Trails Middle School opened its doors. The traditional brick construction combined with an innovative architectural design, reflects a community's commitment to a solid educational foundation enhanced by openness and change. Staff and students learn and work together, striving to achieve the common goal of excellence in education.

Indian Trails Middle School has consistently received an "A" rating from the Florida Department of Education. The parent involvement is second to none. The PTSA has been selected as the top PTSA of the year for middle schools for several years in a row. We have been awarded a Five Star school rating, and continue to receive the Gold and Silver Awards for exemplary volunteer programs. Our school serves a diverse group of students. We are always seeking ways of providing students with a quality technology program designed to maximize their potential.

Media Center
The goal of the Indian Trails Media Center is to support, complement, and enhance the curriculum. We strive to provide an environment in which individual differences and needs can be met, as students become proficient in information retrieval from a variety of resources. We strongly encourage the use of the new technological advances that have been occurring in recent years with the advent of electronic card catalogs, electronic encyclopedias, and the Internet. At the same time we remind and assure students that print materials continue to be a viable source of information. Our Media Center has over 10,000 books, 725 audiovisual items, and seventeen computers with Internet access. The Media Center is open the most of the school day. Students are to come with a pass, as well as with their classes, to do research or find a book for recreational reading. Orientation is provided for the 6th grade classes and for new students as needed. A listing of Internet Resources for students is available by clicking here.
