Middle School

Overview

Our small school and highly personalized approach provides each student with an individualized program that fosters academic excellence and supports social and emotional growth. Students are celebrated as integral, invaluable members of our diverse community. They quickly build strong relationships with each other and are well-known by their advisors, teachers, and other CCSC adults.

We recognize that the transition from elementary school to middle school is an important one academically, socially, and emotionally. Our middle school academic program focuses on important skills students will need in order to be successful in high school and beyond, such as time management, organization, decision making, study habits, and critical thinking. We offer a robust set of student supports designed to meet students’ needs and to champion them as they pursue their goals. We also provide opportunities and structures for students to grow as individuals, advocate for themselves and each other, engage in important discussions, explore their interests, and experience joy in learning, growing, and achieving.
