Welcome
The Middle school helps each student discover and develop their own special talents while at the same time refining the essential skills needed to function in a challenging academic environment. The academic program is supplemented with daily physical education classes, a full fine arts curriculum, trips of many kinds, and explorations into co-curricular activities. emphasis is placed upon effective and compassionate communication, consideration and tolerance of others, the development of teamwork, and the strengthening of one’s value system.
The school program is an extremely full and busy one. all students take classes in the fundamental disciplines, as well as art, music, technology, physical education, health, personal development and a wide range of short-term elective activities. The program is complemented by a chapel assembly program; interesting day and overnight trips; major dramatic productions; special math, social studies and science competitions; internal and external community service projects; and an energetic student leadership program.
classes are small, each student has an advisor, the reporting system allows for specialized narratives at narrowly spaced intervals, all of which helps assure parents that the progress of their child is being closely followed. a strong counseling and learning support program reinforces the work of the advisor and class dean and provides parents with additional resources within the school.
we believe passionately in the right of each student to take advantage of every aspect of the school program. Therefore, we react very strongly to those who physically, sexually and/or verbally abuse others. abusive behavior of any type will not be tolerated. Please free to contact me at tweymouth@towerhill.org if you have questions about the Middle school.
have a great year! sincerely,
Timothy b. weymouth interim head of Middle school
