Middle School

With small class sizes and outstanding teachers, IDEAL Middle School students learn through experience, discussion, and exploration and develop creativity, critical thinking, and collaborative learning skills to prepare them for High School and life.

Middle School is a time of big changes, and we support students through strong relationships with teachers who guide both academic and personal growth. Each day starts with small advisory groups led by co-teachers who serve as mentors. Throughout the day, teachers and specialists work together to adapt lessons and support every student.

IDEAL values diversity and collaboration. Our students learn from different perspectives across subjects like humanities, global languages, science, math, and the arts. They ask questions, solve problems, and explore ideas through hands-on learning and STEAM projects that blend technology, creativity, and design thinking.

Our Diversity Curriculum is a key part of student life. Through assemblies, Community Time, and IDEAL Talks, students explore current events, celebrate achievements, and build leadership and anti-bias skills. They also take part in clubs, performances, and APEX sports.

IDEAL Middle School graduates leave with strong academics, confidence, empathy, and leadership skills that last a lifetime.
