St. Mary’s Middle School provides a departmentalized, academically rigorous experience in which students develop greater independence while continuing to make connections across subject areas. Each day, students engage in challenging Language Arts, mathematics, Social Studies, science, Religion, and Spanish classes and attend STEM, art, and physical education classes each academic week on a rotational schedule. Mathematics courses are differentiated according to student achievement and readiness, with opportunities ranging from grade-level mathematics to high school-level classes like Algebra I and Geometry. Through inquiry-based science, literature and research, mathematical problem-solving, Spanish language development, and faith formation, students are prepared for continued academic growth and the transition to high school.
