The Instructional Program
The Middle School program is designed to provide quality academic and social experiences in a supportive environment. There are a variety of courses for all students, including required courses, year-long electives, required trimester courses (or wheel courses) and trimester electives. The year-long required courses at all grade levels are Mathematics, Science, Humanities and Physical Education and World Languages. Year-long elective courses include Band, Choir, Strings or Yearbook.
With this mix of required and elective choices, students in the Middle School get a well-rounded educational experience which prepares them for success as they move to High School.
