    OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY
    • Our strength is our diversity; students from Clinton, Colerain, Como, Indian Springs, Salem, and Weinland Park Elementary Schools all become one community at Dominion Middle School. 
    • Our teachers value students as young people entering as 6th graders and developing through early adolescence, and then leaving Dominion as confident young adults; and our teachers are committed to working with parents to discover each student’s unique talents, interests and strengths.
    • Our incoming 6th grade students are welcomed by WEB (Where Everyone Belongs) Leaders, 8th grade students nominated by teachers, who are trained to run 6th grade orientation, lead small-group discussions, and serve as a role model for younger students as they transition into middle schoolers. 
    • Our offerings include gifted and talented instruction in all three grades. 
    • We are the only Columbus City Schools middle school with a center serving the deaf and hard of hearing community.
    • Special Needs services tailored to each student’s individual and behavioral needs are offered at Dominion; we house both an  Autism unit and a Multiple Disabilities unit.

    COMMUNITY SUPPORT
     
    • Dominion has a robust PTSO and Music Boosters who are exceptionally committed to students and teachers.
