Document Number: 2646 The Middle Level: More Than Treading Water MS Word - Although educators have worked diligently to incorporate the principles of good middle grades education into institutions, many parents are concerned that middle schools have been so focused on the developmental needs of adolescents that they have made academics secondary.
