Notes for Prospective Students
Students must be on grade level or above. Students must be flexible
and adaptable to our extensive program. Students are expected to
bring their best to class, be respectful of teachers and fellow
students and be a positive addition to the group. Students are
expected to be kind to everyone at school. Every student
participates in three 1-2 week mountain biking, backpacking,
kaykaing and hiking trips every year. The trips are an integral
part of our program and are included in the tuition price. We find
the students who thrive and flourish at SBMS are those who are able
to work independently in an academic environment that is very
traditional and also at times unstructured. We have traditional
expectations that our students are independent, respectful of the
other students and teachers, are conscientious in their academic
pursuits, are flexible inside the classroom as well as on the road,
show that they are self-motivated, have personal follow through and
integrity. Often we are asked what kind of student Santa Barbara
Middle School attracts. I can confidently tell you that students
who thrive well at SBMS have many of these qualities: Intellectual
curiosity and acumen, Self motivation, Adventurous spirit,
Intrinsically hearty, Self discipline, Kindness and Integrity. If
your child is a strong student, easily adaptable to our challenging
academic and robust outdoor program, is enthusiastic about giving
full effort, then we are looking at a great candidate for SBMS!
