Academic Excellence
Science at the middle school is a hands-on curriculum with field trips taken
at all grade levels to enhance the student’s experience. Sixth grade students
participate in a Science Fair and the Invention Convention. Students are
encouraged to use the scientific method to problem-solve and scientific investigations.
Seventh grade students have the opportunity to dissect squid and regenerate
planaria. Eighth graders visit Raven Hill Discovery Center and also raise
Chinook salmon in the classroom and release in Lake Michigan.
