SCHOOL PROFILE
Dunnellon Middle School is located in the city of Dunnellon, Florida, between the Withlacoochee and Rainbow Rivers.
Since 1937, the present site has served as an elementary and high school prior to becoming a middle school. The facility encompasses 21 acres. The 1936 auditorium underwent state historical renovation in 2004.
The current student body of 700 students consists of 44% majority and 56% minority in Grades 6 through 8. Our free and reduced meal program serves all of the students.
In the last six years, our school has achieved either a B or C grade from the Florida Department of Education. These grades have been based on state assessment results and student acceleration since Florida's school improvement and accountability system was updated in 2016. The Continuous Improvement Model (CIM) has been integrated into school practice for the past several years. Additionally, the school curriculum now consists of more inclusive practices for our exceptional student education population.
SCHOOL COLORS AND MASCOT
