Our school is now designated as an AVID Schoolwide Site of Distinction. As you may be aware,
AVID – Advancement Via Individual Determination – is something we implement at our school as a college readiness system where we
1. Commit to equity and opportunity for ALL students on a campus
2. Promote rigorous academic opportunities for our students
3. Deploy highly effective, research-based instructional practices across the school
Whether our students are taking AVID as an elective class, or exposed to and using the skills and tools AVID brings our teachers in core classes, we wanted you to know that our staff is recognized by AVID as a TOP example of work in these important areas.

King Middle School recognized as a Common Sense Certified School: Digital Citizenship
Oceanside, CA – Common Sense, the national nonprofit organization dedicated to helping kids and families thrive in a world of digital media and technology, has recognized King Middle School as a Common Sense Certified School: Digital Citizenship.
King Middle School has demonstrated its commitment to taking a whole-community approach to preparing its students to use the immense power of digital media to explore, create, connect, and learn, while limiting the perils that exist in the online realm, such as plagiarism, loss of privacy, and cyber-bullying.
"We applaud the faculty and staff of King Middle School for embracing digital citizenship as an important part of their students' education," said Jessica Lindl, Head of Common Sense Education. "King deserves high praise for giving its students the foundational skills they need to compete and succeed in the 21st-century workplace and participate ethically in society at large."
King has been using Common Sense Education's innovative and research-based digital citizenship resources, which were created in collaboration with Dr. Howard Gardner of the GoodPlay Project at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The resources teach students, educators, and parents tangible skills related to Internet safety, protecting online reputations and personal privacy, managing online relationships, and respecting creative copyright. The free resources are currently used in more than 90,000 classrooms nationwide.
"We're honored to be recognized as a Common Sense Digital Citizenship Certified School," said Principal Greg Smedley, "By preparing our students to use technology safely and responsibly, we are providing them unlimited opportunities to maximize and personalize their learning."
To learn more about the criteria King Middle School met to become certified as a Common Sense Certified School, visit the Commonsense Recognition site.
OPD officers are in the area of the school at both drop off and dismissal times in an effort to ensure the safe travel of all students. Please abide by the traffic laws and posted zones, show respect for school staff, and be courteous drivers. The safety of all of the children is our primary concern.
- The bike lane was modified along Mesa Drive to allow for more parking along the north side of the road. This parking area is not being used and is available to ease drop off and pick up of students. This is a less congested alternative to the busy MLK park parking lots.
- The “right turn on red” ability from westbound Mesa to northbound Via Rancho is now restricted during student drop off times. Violations will be enforced, and tickets will be issued.
- Please respect the red curb lines and do not park there to pick up or drop off a student. This includes the driveways to the church.
- Please respect the direction of school security staff as they try to assist students in using the crosswalks. Do not block the crosswalks. Additional crosswalks have been added on the access streets near the school.
Visit our Drop Off/Pick Up info page for more guidelines on drop off and pick up!
