Welcome to Jack M. Barrack Middle School!
The formative years our students spend in Middle School are marked by tremendous change and growth. On their journey of discovery, Barrack provides an environment that encourages our students to explore, question and learn in a community where warm and caring teachers guide and support them as they navigate the challenging world of adolescence.
Barrack’s Middle School program promotes academic excellence while recognizing the unique and constantly changing needs of Middle School students. Our dual curriculum offers students an opportunity to discover their potential for achievement and to connect with timeless traditions and values, all within a joyful and pluralistic Jewish environment.
The academic program of our Middle School takes an integrative approach that focuses on skills that promote critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, creativity, independent learning and the ability to engage the world. Our Jewish studies program strengthens identity and inspires a lifelong commitment to making the world a better place.
In addition to our stellar academic program, our Middle School offers students a wealth of choices beyond the classroom. Middle School students participate in a variety of clubs, athletic teams, student government and community service efforts. Each student can pursue his and her interests and passions, creating strong bonds with classmates, teachers and the community.
Enjoy the journey!
Warmly,
Christine Farrell
Middle School Director and Dean of Students
