The Park Tudor Middle School program helps these young people in the sixth through eighth grades develop academic, athletic and artistic skills while working in small enough groups to provide attention to individual needs. The core-curriculum features an interdisciplinary approach to learning using themes developed for each grade. The interrelationship among disciplines is demonstrated to the students through the use of reading assignments, terminology, computer programs, and in-class discussion. This approach provides faculty with the tools to move their students into higher-level thinking by applying the skills learned in one discipline to other disciplines. In addition to the core curriculum, students may choose from a variety of classes in art, theatre, and vocal and instrumental music.
Physical education is a requirement and extracurricular team sports are strongly encouraged.
Grade 6 - Sixth graders take literature and english for a total of two periods a day. They must take drama, art, and vocal music or instrumental musicalso is offered. Additional requirements include one year of drama and one year of music in either year. Electives include vocal music, band, orchestra and art. There are two years of art offered and two different drama and technical theatre classes available for those students who wish to begin their studies in seventh and continue them in eighth grade.
