McDowell Middle School Overview

McDowell Middle School is located in Circleville, Ohio. To get to school, my mom drives me and my sister each morning. The school day lasts from 7:55 AM to 2:31 PM. At McDowell Middle School, each student has 7 periods. Every period is around 1 hour each. At McDowell, I have 6 different teachers throughout each day. We take our book bags to any class that we go to throughout the day. We also have school Chromebooks that we take to and from school each day. We are responsible to bring it back each day. From Kindergarten through 6th Grade, we had recess. From 7th Grade until we graduate, there is no recess. During AE on Fridays, students get to go outside if they have all of their work done.
