Who We Are

The Rupert A. Nock Middle School is comprised of three grade levels, 6-8, with approximately 486 students assigned to either the ‘Crimson' or ‘Gold' teams at each grade. Students enjoy a full menu of academic and exploratory classes throughout the day which is broken into six equal sixty minute periods. A critical characteristic of our middle school is its comprehensive curriculum, that is, the program of planned learning opportunities for our students. It is uniquely and effectively designed to provide for the continuous progress of each child enrolled. We educate the ‘whole child' and address the intellectual, physical, social, emotional, and artistic needs of each through a variety of inter-disciplinary learning opportunities that are dynamic and meaningful. Our curriculum, instruction, and assessment relates to the lives of our students, integrates knowledge, focuses on the process of learning, and is delivered in an environment in which exploration is pervasive and students access and process information with real world applications.

Rupert. A. Nock Mission Statement:

In fulfilling the Mission of the Newburyport Public Schools, the Rupert A. Nock Middle School, an authentic middle school, is committed to the intellectual, moral, physical, and social development of every student.

Children in the eleven to fourteen age group have distinct educational and psychological needs which clearly identify them as a unique group. Our purpose as a middle school is to meet these unique educational and psychological needs, to ease the transition from childhood to adolescence, and to bridge the gap from the self-contained elementary school to the departmentalized high school.

We are committed to providing quality education in a caring community that ensures each individual student the opportunity to learn to the maximum of his or her potential.
