About SMS

Welcome to Silverado Middle School! 

We work collaboratively with parents, students, and staff to create safe and welcoming spaces for students to thrive. Built in 1958, our beautiful, tri-level school is home to 850 students, with updated classroom spaces, a large garden area, multipurpose room, visual and performing arts spaces, and a large athletic complex including baseball fields, basketball courts, two gyms, a swimming pool, and a newly renovated track and field facility. We focus each day on building a school culture where students talk about, monitor, and advocate for the next steps in their learning through a challenging learning environment rich with opportunities for students to collaborate, think critically, be creative, express their thoughts and ideas, and to show the agency and determination to be successful. Students are able to demonstrate their academic learning through content knowledge, deep understandings, transferable applications, and real-world challenges. We welcome you to see for yourself by visiting campus for a tour or perusing our website. Go Dons!
