A Little about Deer Park Middle School
Deer Park Middle School is located in the beautiful Inland Northwest. Surrounded by fields, forests, lakes and wildlife our school sits in the middle of a large valley, with mountains in three directions; the city of Spokane is approximately 20 miles to the south (see map above). The City of Deer Park presently has a population of well over 3,000 within the city limits, while an additional 13,000 live within about 15 minutes of the downtown area.
Deer Park Middle School has experienced steady growth in recent years, with a student population of approximately 450. Student population throughout the Deer Park School District has seen slight increases and decreases in the last 10 years; in September 2004, district enrollment was at 2193 in September 2007, 2538 in September of 2013, and was at 2450 in the 2016-17 school year.
DPMS serves students in grades six through eight; sixth grade classrooms are located in a detached “wing” on the middle school campus. Staff in our school district are committed to providing a positive and productive experience for all students – and the staff here are DPMS are certainly no exception.
In addition solid instruction in the “core” academic areas, DPMS has a comprehensive educational program that includes courses in social studies, world languages, physical education, and the arts. Also, there are many exciting and engaging opportunities for students to stay involved after school; we have many athletic programs to choose from and a number of engaging after school activities. School is always such a more enriching experience when students get involved and invest themselves in these programs – we strongly encourage students to participate!
The “middle years” are an exciting and immensely important time in life – these three years of school play a vital role constructing a solid foundation for success in high school. Whether in the classroom, on the athletic fields, or through participation in one activities, Deer Park Middle School is a place where students can experience a positive environment for learning and personal growth.
