EL Learning at Escalante Middle School

Escalante Middle School is an Expeditionary Learning environment that takes great pride in ensuring that every student has a safe and engaging educational experience. Our pursuit of academic excellence for all students is matched by our commitment to building strong performance character skills and a passion for both visual and performing arts.

At Escalante we open each day in Crew, which are small teacher-led groups that focus on building teamwork and strong relationships throughout our school. Essentially, our Crew motto “We are crew, not passengers” extends throughout the school day from there. At Escalante, everyone grabs a paddle and works around here - there is no passive way to earn a great education! Therefore, our students actively track their own learning, engage in challenging work worth doing, and frequently reflect on their academic progress. Students are at the center of their learning here, which is why they are the leaders of their parent conferences.

Our community is exceptionally supportive of our school. My sincere thanks go out to all of our parents and volunteers who have contributed to make our school the exceptional place that it is. Feel free to contact us with any questions.

Sincerely,

Jeremy Voss

Escalante Middle School, Principal
