Middle School

In the Middle School, your child’s development builds on the skills mastered in the earlier grades, while providing a bridge to the challenges of high school. Your child will assume more responsibility for their work and have more choices in elective subjects, as well as access to clubs, teams, and a guidance counselor. Some students may place into high school level courses.

Your child’s readiness for high school requires social and emotional development. For this reason, each student has a faculty advisor who functions as the "parent on campus” during these three critically formative years.

The Capturing Kids' Hearts philosophy, "If you have a child's heart, you have their head" is used as teachers greet students at the classroom door each day and target their special interests to engage and empower them in a meaningful way.

Middle School Curriculum

At the heart of the Middle School is a traditional, challenging curriculum rooted in fundamentals which are presented by our engaging, caring professionals. Core subjects include:

Project Based Learning is incorporated in the MS curriculum. In science an aeroponic Tower Garden is used to teach concepts as students grow plants and vegetables. 

Leadership Growth

Your child will also develop leadership skills in our Middle School. Students learn the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People in a comprehensive leadership program that is integrated into every class.

Leadership skills are taught, promoted and recognized as students participate in formulating Student Government policy, celebrate academics and service in the Lumen Domus Chapter of the National Junior Honor Society, and conduct an extensive Community Service Program through clubs and advisory groups.
