Middle School

The Middle School years form the critical transition period from students competent in the basics of reading, writing and mathematics to students launched into more serious academic study. For Middle School students, our concentration is on maintaining and raising the standards of those basic tools learned earlier, becoming focused and independent as students and getting an increased conceptual understanding of how academic subjects integrate and relate to real life. Additionally, specific courses and projects are designed to raise the students' willingness and ability to draw conclusions and make judgments about the information they're learning.

Students generally enter Middle School around the age of eleven and a half and graduate to Upper School by fourteen years of age.
