From hands-on projects to leadership opportunities, the Middle School experience encourages students to think independently, act responsibly, and care deeply for their community.
The journey begins with our signature Spartan U program, a thoughtful introduction to Middle School that helps students transition with confidence, build connections, and understand what it means to thrive in our community.
Weekly gatherings like Monday Morning Mash-Up build school spirit and connection, while a wide range of clubs, a competitive Robotics Team, athletics, and service opportunities help students explore who they are and how they can make an impact. Each year, students participate in Minterim, a week-long learning experience that extends beyond the classroom. Whether through local service projects, travel-based learning, or creative workshops, Minterim encourages exploration, independence, and discovery.
