Middle School

Middle School provides a transition between elementary and high school. Students are encouraged to develop all facets of themselves through academics, service projects, extracurricular activities, and athletics. The sixth grade class works in semi self-contained classrooms to introduce them to the responsibilities of lockers, class changes, and the demands of more than one teacher. By the time they are in seventh grade, the students are able to transition smoothly through their eight period day.

Every student is encouraged to try-out for school sponsored extra-curricular activities. These activities help promote solid relationships and a sense of accomplishment. They also served to help promote solid relationships and a sense of accomplishment. They also serve to help promote a positive self-image and a more well rounded individual.

The Terra Nova Standardized Test is administered to the seventh grade students.  The ACRE Test for Religious Education is administered to the eighth grade students.
