Sixth Grade
Students in Sixth Grade are provided Chromebook laptops. During their first year in middle school, students are trained in office skills, executive functioning, and responsible technology use. Middle schoolers also continue an age-appropriate social-emotional learning curriculum that bridges from the elementary school.
Seventh Grade
Seventh graders work with their first grade buddies on reading skills, comprehension, and creative endeavors. Each trimester, they rotate between Health, Art, and Music classes to supplement their core curriculum and gain a well-rounded education that builds self awareness.
Eighth Grade
Eighth graders work throughout the year to complete a minimum of 10 hours of community service which becomes the basis of their capstone project. All students complete a "Leadership" class that emphasizes public speaking, school service, and cooperation.
