Broad Meadows Middle School

Welcome to Broad Meadows!

Established in 1957, Broad Meadows Middle School was one of Quincy's first middle schools. With a diverse population that draws from several parts of the city, Broad Meadows possesses a thriving multicultural atmosphere.

Known for its outstanding curriculum and dedicated staff, the school has been referred to as "a living, breathing, vital example of middle-level education at its best."

Our primary mission is to provide the finest education possible to each student by offering a challenging academic curriculum, a nurturing environment for the middle school child, and a positive school climate encouraging social growth.

Our school provides a variety of opportunities for students to celebrate their diversity, develop an appreciation for the arts, and encourages opportunities such as community service and global awareness to foster a sense of social responsibility.

Over the years, our commitment to excellence has been recognized by numerous prestigious awards and accolades: Broad Meadows has been honored as a National School Of Excellence by the U.S. Department of Education's Secondary School Recognition Program; our dedication to both History and The Arts Education earned us the distinguished "Blue Ribbon Award;" and we were awarded the esteemed Reebok International Human Rights Award for our influential work on child labor issues. Broad Meadows was also the first-ever school to receive the U.S. Agency for International Development's "Domestic Partner Award."

For over fifty years Broad Meadows Middle School, "Home of the Breakers," has truly been a special place.
