Falmouth Middle School (FMS) is a public middle school serving students in grades 6–8 within the Falmouth Public Schools district in Falmouth, Maine. The campus is located at 52 Woodville Rd and is organized into six crew-based cohorts across three grades (Casco/Sebago in 6th, Acadia/Baxter in 7th, Eagles/Osprey in 8th). The school delivers a standard middle school curriculum including ELA, math, science, history/social studies, world languages (French, Spanish), arts, and physical education, supported by a 1:1 iPad program and a research-based Connected Mathematics Project (CMP) curriculum.

The school's core technology stack is standard K-12 ed-tech infrastructure: PowerSchool for student information and grade management, Google Classroom for daily instruction, Follett Destiny for library cataloging, Sora for digital reading, NoodleTools for citation work, and Gale In-Context and World Book for research databases. A technology support specialist and a librarian/technology integrator manage digital resources. The school also runs a comprehensive athletics program (18+ sports across fall, winter, and spring), a Farm to School nutrition program with free breakfast and lunch for all students via Special Provision II/CEP, full-time nursing, school counseling, social work, and two School Resource Officers.

As a public school, FMS is funded primarily through local property taxes, state education aid, and federal programs, with no tuition charged to district residents. Ancillary revenue streams include $100 per-student athletic fees, $275 football equipment fees, adult meal charges ($2.50 breakfast, $5.75 lunch), and a la carte items via MySchoolBucks. Non-resident and international (J1/F1) students are admitted on a space-available, superintendent-approved basis. The school is governed as part of the Falmouth Public Schools district alongside Falmouth Elementary School and Falmouth High School.
