Middle School
Middle School
Our middle school program starts in grades 6th- 8th. Each day our middle school students start their day in their homeroom and move each class period to different classrooms for instruction by a teacher with certification in that specific academic field. Teachers use differentiated teaching methods along with promoting high student-engagement activities that place a priority on higher level thinking.
Students who demonstrate exceptional academic achievement can elect to participate in Dual-Enrollment Math through the Blessed Carlos Acutis Virtual Academy, offering students the opportunity to earn high school credit.

Education in social studies enables students to become well informed about the world around them through exploration of the social sciences of history, geography, economics, culture and government.
