Sixth Grade
Sixth Grade begins the middle school Lab Learner program. This year we are using new digital spectrophotometers, oxygen meters, thermometers and balances, which are more sensitive and precise than our older tools. We will also use digital microscopes that can project a slide view on the student chromebooks. In sixth grade students study matter, energy, and earth science topics. Students participate in the school Science Fair and are eligible to participate in the North Museum Science and Engineering Fair. One of the highlights of Sixth Grade is being partnered with our Preschool students as Prayer Pals. Students meet monthly to help with crafts, read stories, and provide a familiar face in the hallway! Sixth grade math concepts include measurement, number sense, operations with fractions, decimals and integers, ratios, and problem solving skills.

Seventh Grade
Seventh Grade students participate in our school science fair and are eligible to compete in the North Museum Science Fair. Science class focuses on the periodic table and chemistry in the fall and biology in the spring. Seventh Grade math begins with data analysis and probability — students create and analyze various types of graphs used in statistics. Other topics include expressions and equations, percentages, integers, solving equations, and geometry.
