Through structural project based learning experiences math, reading, grammar/writing, literature, social studies and science are the core subjects of the middle school curriculum. Critical thinking skills become increasingly important at this level of study. Our focus is to thoroughly prepare our students for the four years of high school that lie ahead.
Our computer labs and the library /media center are available for research. A full time research assistant is available to guide students through the Internet to valuable sources of information.
In math, students are placed in math courses as determined by their background and abilities. Students may have the opportunity to earn high school credit in Algebra I and/or Geometry while in junior high school. At this level, students will take life science and earth science courses with laboratory experiences. Through community based learning, we advance critical thinking and knowledge in social studies. Middle school students will study both American history and civics.
Enrichment courses are an important part of the middle curriculum. Students have many options including computers, foreign language (Spanish).
