Northview Crossroads Middle School resides in a community just north of Grand Rapids, Michigan. We are a learning environment composed of a creative and capable staff of about sixty individuals. Along with a community of supportive parents/guardians, we are focused on the academic and social education of our approximately five hundred 7th and 8th grade middle school students.
The school building was built in 1965 and modernized in 1996. There are three computer labs, which were upgraded in 2014, along with two portable laptop carts, four sets of Chrome books, and each classroom is outfitted with an interactive projector.
Advanced classes are offered in seventh and eighth grade math, as well as eighth grade language arts. A variety of after school clubs are offered, which include homework help, after-school tutoring, art, fun and fitness, yearbook, National Junior Honor Society, and jazz band / percussion ensemble.
Crossroads Middle School is committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where all are respected. All members of the school community must, therefore, adhere to positive behavior requirements. Rules and regulations are in place that provide the structure for positive behavior, and enable the school to operate in a safe and orderly manner, where students feel secure and are able to learn without disruption.
