History
Webber Middle School, opened in 1990, is named for Don Webber, former PSD teacher, coach, principal, and superintendent. A new gymnasium was added in 1999, and the cafeteria was expanded in 2005.

Learning culture
“Webber Middle School will support and challenge all students to learn and grow to their highest potential,” is our mission statement by which we measure everything we do. We have high expectations for both academics and behavior.

Our exceptional staff is selected based on qualifications, job expertise, and caring and acceptance of young adolescents.

Academic environment
Our students typically average a 3.2 GPA each grade period. In the years the state has “graded” schools, we have scored either excellent or at the top of the high category.

Webber operates on an alternating block schedule that provides for a wide variety of course offerings to meet the needs of every student.

Throughout our school community, we emphasize the 6 Ps: Prompt, Polite, Positive, Productive, Persistent, and Proud.
