Our Mission for Black Diamond Middle School

Black Diamond Middle School has a unique school culture that embraces:

  • Character

    • The six pillars of character: respect, caring, fairness, trustworthiness, responsibility, citizenship.

  • Community

    • We are a place that values diversity, where students are active participants and feel a sense of belonging and pride. Miners learn to be responsible for the success for themselves and others.

  • Academics

    • Students understand the importance of learning and have a desire to achieve to the best of their ability. They receive support in their academic endeavors and learn to be critical thinkers.

  • Future

    • We prepare students for success in high school, college careers, and to make positive contributions to society.

  • Whole Child

    • Miners are well-rounded individuals with opportunities to develop their bodies and minds through sports, clubs, electives, and other extra-curricular activities.

Our Vision for Black Diamond

We uphold and live the Six Pillars of Character and believe that a person of character makes the world a better place.

  • We do what is right even when no one is watching.

  • We know that if we work hard and do our best, we can be successful.

  • We care for and respect our community, family, and each other.

  • We seek creative solutions in all that we do.

We believe that ALL members of the school community, including students, staff, and administrators, are responsible for demonstrating the following: respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and good citizenship.
