Middle School Performance Standards
Middle Schools and Georgia Career, Technical and Agricultural Education Designed to meet the needs of young adolescents (ages 10-15), middle schools bridge the gap between elementary and high school by providing students with an opportunity to learn in a safe, nurturing, and positive environment. According to the National Middle School Association (NMSA) characteristics of effective middle schools include courageous, collaborative leadership, a shared vision that guides decisions, high expectations for every member of the learning community, students and teachers engaged in active learning, and school community partnerships. These characteristics are also found within the Career, Technical and Agricultural Education programs in Georgia. CTAE is making giant strides to bring middle school programs to new career readiness goals. The new curriculum will include national standards, CTAE standards and Georgia Performance Standards, in addition to career development activities allowing students to make the connection between class work and workforce.
