Students in middle school are placed in classroom based cluster groups for their core content classes such as math, ELA, social studies and science.  Over the duration of these core content classes, teachers will differentiate instruction based on the needs of the students.  All classes will follow the district adopted scope and sequence for that course that is aligned with Washington state standards.

Students also have opportunities in middle school to accelerate their learning through a couple of pathways.  For mathematics, they can test into higher level math courses through a challenge exam that they register for in the Spring. In other content areas, they can take classes that give them high school credit such as Environmental Science and Foreign Languages.

Middle school students also have many after school enrichment clubs available to them.  In addition to sports, many schools offer Knowledge Bowl, Chess, Gaming, Robotics, Band, Orchestra, Drama and more.  Middle school is a great time for students to find their passions and explore new hobbies.
