Cougars Vision
The vision of Kirby Middle School is to be the middle
school of choice in the Hickory Hill area by
equipping students with the emotional, social, and
academic skills needed to enable them to be
effective communicators in a rapidly-changing
world. By developing comprehension, computation,
reasoning, & problem- solving skills, our students
will successfully transition to high school, college,
and beyond.
Cougars Mission

Our mission is to inspire students to move
beyond their current abilities to their
maximum academic & personal potential
while preparing them to be productive and
successful citizens.
Cougars’ Beliefs
 All decisions, actions and resource allocations are made in the best
interest of the students.

 We are responsible for the education and safety of every student.
 We are to provide opportunities for all to succeed through core,
exploratory and co-curricular activities.
 Purposeful engagement is the most effective long-term way to
learn and is our primary responsibility.
Quality teachers are the single most important influence on the
quality of learning.
Relationships that promote trust and safety (physical, emotional,
social) are needed for learning and well being.
