Wabash Secondary
Wabash Middle School includes grades 5-8 with 5th and 6th on one floor and 7th and 8th on another. Our highly qualified staff prioritizes a rigorous curriculum while developing genuine relationships with students. WMS provides accelerated academic plans allowing students to earn high school credits in middle school. In addition to our rigorous core curriculum, we offer STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), computer science, industrial technology, and several arts-based classes.
There are many student clubs and activities to keep students engaged and connected to their peers. WMS offers many athletic opportunities that other small schools can't offer such as soccer, softball, and swimming.
Since it was established in 1869, Wabash High School has been dedicated to making sure our students are prepared for success in the global community. Wabash Early College High School was the thirteenth high school in Indiana to be endorsed by the Center of Excellence in Leadership of Learning (CELL) as an early college. We strive to be creative and innovative in our instruction while engaging students in their learning through a variety of relevant and rigorous activities, applications of technology, and 21st Century skills.
We strongly believe in the "3 E's" for our graduates. Every student graduating from Wabash High School will be Employable at a living wage, Enlisted in the military, or Enrolled in some form of post-secondary education. To achieve this, we utilize a number of different programs like intentional 4-year planning conferences with all freshmen and their families and placing students with an advisory teacher that they have through all 4 years. Our personal attention and course offerings are unmatched in our area!
