Think Big. Start Here
Our exciting curriculum lays the foundation for a strong college preparatory learning experience. Each Middle Schooler is exposed to classes in theology, English, mathematics, social studies, science, world languages, and leadership. Further, each Middle Schooler is given the opportunity to participate in physical education, performing arts, visual arts, and technology.
Learning with Purpose
Our Middle School leverages our Upper School courses to allow students to advance their studies. From world languages to both visual and performing arts, Maryvale Middle School students have the opportunity to take Upper School classes.
Overall, the Middle School years give students the opportunity to make mistakes, learn how to bounce back from mistakes, collaborate with others, strengthen their faith, think beyond themselves, and learn how to give grace to themselves and others.
