Junior High (6-8)

Junior High School

Students in grades 6 -8 benefit from a fully departmentalized junior high program designed to foster independence and academic excellence. Classes rotate in two-hour blocks, providing extended time for meaningful instruction and collaboration. The curriculum includes language arts, mathematics, science, Spanish, religion, technology, history, and physical education. Interactive whiteboards in every classroom support technology-enhanced learning. Seventh graders advance through pre-algebra while eighth graders complete Algebra, preparing them for high school success.

CURRICULUM

The school’s program is focused on preparing our students for high school, college, and beyond! Language Arts classes provide a strong emphasis on the writing process and strengthening a love for reading. Science instruction allows students to construct scientific understanding through exploration and experimentation. Mathematical problem solving skills are strengthened through the implementation of the common core curriculum. History and Religion are experienced through the use of Thinking Maps, Cornell notes, and alongside projects that make their learning relevant and meaningful.

SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT

As our students discover their gifts and talents, we teach students how to use these gifts and talents to serve God and their community. Our emphasis on problem solving, critical thinking, and social awareness is designed to prepare students to contribute to their communities in relevant and meaningful ways.

FAITH FORMATION

The school’s faith formation program is designed to help students grow in the Catholic faith, deepen their relationship with Christ, and develop a lifelong commitment to prayer and service.
