Our goal is to create an environment which fosters and promotes high academic achievement by providing an atmosphere for individual growth and development and by building upon student success. The school will have a strong research base, encouraging students to gather information, make appropriate judgements on the information and then use it in the most authentic ways possible. Students will also get a firm foundation in the arts taught by specialists and incorporated into their classroom learning.
Education is a mutual responsibility shared cooperatively by parents, teachers and students.
School procedures need the support of all three components to be effective. The Middle School Adolescence is a time of vast developmental change. The seventh and eighth grade Middle School program, located in the High School facility provides a student-centered environment designed to meet the unique emotional, educational, and social needs of this age group. A supportive staff guides students through this transitional period from dependence towards the self-reliance necessary for success in the high school program. The challenge of the seventh and eighth grade program is to continue the building of a solid foundation of basic skills while providing opportunities for the development of higher order cognitive abilities.
