In the lower secondary years, we believe that students should have broad exposure to a wide range of learning opportunities both within and outside the classroom so that they begin to better understand themselves and their interests. We would like our middle school students to take greater ownership over their own learning, and we encourage them to think critically and creatively, to ask big questions, and to discover themselves. Through exciting projects and a continued emphasis on building core skills in literacy and numeracy, students develop the skills necessary to thrive and grow in our complex world.
