Middle schools

  • Weisenborn Middle School (In the fall of 2012, all 7th and 8th graders in the district started attending this school) (formerly Clara E. Weisenborn Junior High School)
    • The original Weisenborn building was constructed on an open classroom plan, with groups of two-to-four classrooms. There were no walls within these groups, but over time, teachers used cabinets, coat racks, portable chalkboards, and other furniture to isolate individual rooms. Eventually, walls and doors were built between classrooms, but because of the layout, many of the classrooms could be accessed only by walking through another classroom.
  • Studebaker Middle School (Currently being used to house administrative staff, SOAR program, Preschool and YMCA latchkey program) (formerly Robert H. Studebaker Junior High School)

    • Kitty Hawk and Menlo Park were twin schools located on the same property, separated by a parking area. Depending on enrollment requirements, the two schools were often divided by grade, for example, kindergarten through third grade at one school and fourth to sixth grade at the other. They were eventually demolished and replaced by Wright Brothers Elementary
  • Titus Elementary (formerly Titus High School)
  • Robert J. LaMendola Elementary (formerly Shenandoah Elementary) - Shenandoah, like Weisenborn, was built on an open classroom plan. classrooms were organized into groups of four called "pods" that shared a common space for large group programs and for storage of students' coats, lunch boxes, and the like. There were no walls between the classrooms in a pod, but heavy curtains could be drawn when necessary.
