WEB / Middle School Prep

WEB, Where Everybody Belongs, is our Middle School Prep program that welcomes the sixth grade class to George Washington Middle School. Every sixth grader will be assigned an eighth grade WEB Leader who will continue to support him or her throughout the first year of middle school. The WEB Leaders have been identified as students on campus who are positive role models, responsible, possess leadership qualities, are kind, and, most importantly, have the desire to give back to their school community.
