Middle School (5th through 8th grade)

Middle School students are able to establish meaningful relationships with our teachers due to our small class size and dedicated faculty who are fully devoted to teaching gifted children. The sense of a supportive community is strong throughout our Middle School families.

Our students participate in science, math, language arts, social studies, art, drama, music theory, chorus, physical education, world language (French or Spanish), and Technology. Latin and Classical Studies are introduced in Middle School. Whether they are experimenting in the high school equipped science lab, analyzing Shakespeare, creating history fair projects, or learning self-confidence in drama, our Middle School students enjoy learning in a safe, challenging environment. Read more about our curriculum »

Middle School also features an Advisory program which focuses on the social and emotional development of our students as they navigate adolescence.
