First Day of School at Diamond Middle School

The first day at Diamond is all about new beginnings! Students will meet their teachers, reconnect with friends, and get to know their schedules and classrooms.

NEW Daily Schedule

Based on feedback from our community - especially our students - Diamond Administration made a few key adjustments to the daily schedule this year:

• Extended Lunch Periods: Moved to three mixed-grade lunch periods and added 5 minutes to each, giving students 25 total minutes to eat and recharge.

• Direct-to-Class Start at 8:00 AM: To make time for longer lunches, daily homeroom has been eliminated. Students should head straight to their 1st block class by 8:00 AM on typical days.

• *FIRST-DAY EXCEPTION: On the first day of school only, all students will report to Homeroom first to kick off the year!

Diamond Staff will walk 7th and 8th graders through these shifts on day one, while taking extra time to help incoming 6th graders get comfortable with their new middle school routine.
