Upper elementary is an exciting time for children as they begin to take more ownership of their learning. Students will begin to widen their concept of the world in both traditional and nontraditional ways.  We work together to ensure that students are given a balanced amount of rigor and support as needed.

Grades 5-8

Our middle school program is designed to prepare students for success in high school and beyond. Students are challenged to think independently, take risks, and develop a strong sense of self. Our exceptional math and science program provides students with the skills they need to excel in these critical areas.
