Academics
Middle School
The Oak Hall Middle School division is an essential component to the school's overall mission. Students learn to meet the accelerating demands of the academic curriculum in a school setting that is, first and foremost, student-centered. Here, each student has the opportunity to develop to his or her fullest potential - intellectually, creatively, socially, athletically and spiritually.
At Oak Hall, we recognize that the middle school years are a critical time for a student's overall development and are committed to creating an environment that nurtures this transition from childhood to adolescence. The teachers in this division serve as enthusiastic models in all areas. They are responsive to academic concerns, within a framework of understanding the physical, emotional, and social behaviors attributable to these students.
The curriculum focuses on the "how-to's" of learning and is varied to meet the needs of different learning styles. The curriculum is grounded in literature, grammar, American and world history, geography, math, science and computer technology. Students have opportunities to participate in music, drama, art, journalism, and student leadership. Keyboarding, study skills, team building and team sports are also offered. The program of the Oak Hall Middle School division reflects a broad range of opportunities and experiences conducive to the positive growth of our students.
