Mission

Centrally located on campus in Crosman Hall, the Middle School educates boys from grade 6 through Form II (grade 8). Our purpose is to encourage, support and prepare students as they develop into young men through an enriching curriculum that is tailored to meet the needs of adolescent boys. The Middle School is dedicated to teaching boys to learn through motivation, curiosity, passion, discipline and from their own mistakes in order to find success as they mature.  

Philosophy

Boys learn differently, and an all-boys environment can produce superior academic, artistic and athletic outcomes. The Middle School strives to see and meet the needs of adolescent boys by teaching organization, responsibility and accountability. The middle school boy is a challenge. His relationships develop and shift frequently and his enthusiasm for learning often needs direction. We believe a strong relationship with boys will nurture and support their efforts. We make every effort to encourage boys’ in the classroom and beyond using humor, focus and professional guidance. We understand the requirements of teaching boys and we create an environment where each boy has the opportunity to fit and flourish.
