Middle School should be a time of enthusiasm, exploration, and energy. We desire to create a highly engaging Middle School culture through inspiring and varied academics, leadership opportunities and challenging chapels. Learning takes place in a variety of groupings, with students involved in a diversity of learning projects and experiences that have real-world connections.
Middle School is a time when connections really matter, both with peers and with adults. Strength and safety in relationships allow our students the confidence to be outward focused, serving, and act as a leader. Starting with strong homeroom identities, every Middle School student has a place to belong. As well, we have created intentional times for community building, including multi-graded Explorations classes, monthly community chapels, student recognition, and timetabled options for Middle School community-building.
Every student will be involved in at least one form of outreach or service throughout the year. The Middle School community supports Child of Mine, which runs two children’s homes in India. As well, each Middle School homeroom carries out a service/outreach project based on the passions, connections, and initiative of the students and their teacher. Homerooms share about their outreach experiences at community chapels throughout the year.
