JUNIOR HIGH - GRADES 7-8
In addition to the benefits of the elementary school, the junior high program is comprised of 7th and 8th grades and bridges the transition from the homeroom-based model of the elementary program to the pre-college atmosphere of high school.

The junior high program emphasizes learning the basic skills of each discipline as well as critical thinking, decision-making, and interpersonal relations. The curriculum for this age group allows for the individuality of each student, while emphasizing the acquisition of academic knowledge and life skills. Students learn to frame the appropriate questions, to find the information when they need it, to be life-long learners, and to allow them to participate actively in the exciting age of information.
