Schools to Watch
The National Forum to Accelerate Middle-Grades Reform in 2006 accepted South Carolina into its state Schools to Watch Program.
We identify Schools to Watch as those that are:
Academically Excellent
These Schools challenge all students to use their minds well.
Developmentally Responsive
Socially Equitable
Organized
These schools establish norms, structures, and organizational arrangements to support and sustain their trajectory toward excellence.

The Schools to Watch Program is a copyright-protected program of the National Forum to Accelerate Middle Grades Reform. The National Forum’s criteria serve as the foundation for the Forum’s Schools to Watch Program.
The National Schools to Watch Conference is a great opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about the Schools to Watch criteria and how they can be used to improve middle schools and student achievement.
