The personality and atmosphere of our
Middle School really surfaces through our enrichment programs
like fine arts, and clubs and activities. Every student participates
in fine arts five days a week.
The Middle School arts program offers an
introduction to visual arts, music classes - all students
spend at least one semester learning to play a string instrument!
- and theater. By the time they head off to Upper School,
most will have begun to specialize in one or two areas.
Opportunities:
Instrumental Music, Vocal Music, Studio Art, Drama
Grade Six - 9-week rotation
through each offering
Grade Seven - 9-week rotation
through level two of each course
Grades Eight
- students pick two, each to study for half of the
year
In addition, each student selects an enrichment
activity for two periods a week.
Enrichment Period provides:
- an academic-related challenge where transferable skills
can be developed for regular academic classes
- classes where students can more deeply explore an academic-related
passion; low-pressure confidence-building settings
- opportunities for students and teachers to develop a stronger
rapport
- opportunities to explore interests and develop as a more
well rounded individual
