Indio Middle School is a Desert Sands Unified School District campus on Miles Avenue and the home of the Tigers. We prepare students for the academic and social demands of high school and, later, college and careers. Two school counselors divide our students alphabetically and offer individual counseling, group counseling and classroom lessons covering academic, career and social-emotional growth. We run a Saturday Academy, and our expanded learning program supports sixth grade sports such as boys basketball and coed volleyball, with games against other district middle schools. Students also attend events such as the Jostens Renaissance Conference and pitch in on campus clean-up days.
