Middle School | Gr. 5-8
Curriculum
From Roman banquets to robot battles, trips to space and deep dives into literature, Laguna’s Middle School is continually proving that classroom walls are nothing more than an architectural requirement.
Individual attention is at the core of the Middle School academic program. For this reason classes are small – fifteen students is the average size – and opportunities for students to meet individually with their teachers are built into the daily schedule.
The academic horizons in grades five through eight are forever expanding thanks to a dual emphasis on project-based learning and experiential learning. Here, lessons grow to encompass a slew of subjects while encouraging students to learn through doing.
In transforming education, Laguna Blanca’s teachers invite students to transform themselves into engineers, medieval armorers, founding fathers, and astronauts.
