College and Career Academy Team Trailblazers!

Middle school is an important time period in a student’s life. Not only does middle school prepare students for a successful transition to high school, but it also helps students form healthy social and emotional habits that can be useful throughout life.

Middle School Academies at Miller South provide students with engaging and creative learning opportunities at each grade level called Guaranteed Experiences. Students will be challenged to think in and out of the classroom, research and solve community-based problems, explore careers, and engage in activities that foster personal growth.

Your sixth grader can expect the following this year at part of the Trailblazer College Career and Academy Team:

6th Grade Seminar
6th grade students will work to develop strong academic and social skills necessary to be successful in school while exploring career clusters to begin to envision themselves in the future.

Nonprofit Discovery Day
6th grade students visit nonprofits to learn about their missions, discover how services are accessed by the community, and understand careers in the nonprofit industry.  

Discovery Challenge
Scholars propose solutions to a problem identified by a nonprofit.
