Junior High School
7th and 8th Grade
Our challenging, college-preparatory curriculum lays a strong foundation and prepares junior high students for a lifetime of learning. Students transition to 3 days of on-campus learning. As students grow in maturity, we encourage skills like time-management, organization, personal responsibility, and independence. A parent’s role is vital in setting a student up for success on-campus and at home. The approach and attitude a student and parent bring make all the difference in junior high.
