6-8 Curriculum

In the middle schools, Westport’s rigorous curriculum focuses on helping students to become increasingly independent learners, preparing them to succeed in high school and beyond. In Grades 6–8, students deepen their knowledge and skills in four core subjects: Social Studies, Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. In addition, students experience a truly robust compilation of encore offerings, including:

• Music,

• World Language instruction in either French, Spanish or Mandarin,

• Visual Arts,

• Engineering and Design,

• Physical Education & Health, and

• Theater and Presentation.
