Central Middle School (Reading, Pennsylvania)

Central Middle School is a public middle school in Reading, Pennsylvania within the Reading School District. Formerly known as Reading Intermediate High School (RIHS), the school's name was changed in 2019 after a decision by the district to convert the school to serve students from the fifth grade to the eighth grade beginning with the 2019–20 school year. For the 2018–19 school year, students who would have attended RIHS as ninth graders began attending Reading High School, so that only students in the eighth grade attended RIHS for the 2018–19 school year.[5][6][7]
