Miami is a relativley good school this year. Our istep scores went up. Last year seventh grade had gotten one of the highest scores in the state. Our boys track football basketball and soccer teams won the city championships. More than 30 percent of the students are on honor roll. We are one of the only 3 or 4 middle schools that have a show choir.
