| Western’s Middle School focuses on four major developmental needs of a middle school-aged student: Connected Relationships, Control, Competency, and Acceptance. The staff at Western are intentional about making each of our middle school students feel connected to the greater group – that they are unique and that the group would not be special without them in it. Our staff also understand the need for each of our students to share in control. Middle school students need to have opportunities to make choices about issues that affect them. So our staff provides opportunities for our students to practice making choices, within boundaries that improve self-confidence. Middle school students also want to feel competent in what they do, and we understand that students who do not feel competent in their studies often create distracting behaviors to mask their feelings. Our staff is committed to working with each student so that they can succeed and flourish. Finally, we understand our students need to feel accepted and loved for who they are not just what they do. We are purposeful in celebrating each of the God-given uniqueness we find in each of our students. |
| Our middle school program focuses on our core subject areas intended to prepare our students for rigorous high school experience. These include Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Technology, Music, and Physical Education. We also offer a “wheel” of electives that provide fun and engaging activities for our students. Each wheel class revolves around a specialty area such as art, computer, STEM projects, creative expression, etc. These electives are short 12-week classes throughout the school year. |
