Middle School Activities
While elementary activity options are broad and continuously rotating with a focus on exposing children to a wide variety of activities, middle school activity options are a carefully curated selection. The format focuses on increased involvement and more extended participation. Students can get more deeply involved and have an opportunity for leadership within the activities.
Many of the high quality options available to middle school students happen during elective classes. Where athletics happen after school, middle school elective time is built into the weekly school day schedule, and every student is involved. The list of activities may change from semester to semester, depending on student interest, but they typically offer options in academic, sport, service, and special interest clubs/activities.
It is worth noting that these activities do not represent the full extent of opportunities for middle school students to be involved in fun, extra-curricular learning, but they are part of a structured program intended to provide an intentional experience that plays an important supportive role in the landscape of middle school learning.
