Westwood Middle School
Grades 6-8
A Team of Professionals
The middle school is taught by a team of sixth, seventh and eighth grade teachers. They have a unique understanding of the needs of this age group and how to challenge and encourage their best growth.
A Step Up Academically
Students step up from elementary school into a more demanding curriculum with more critical thinking and independent study. The reading curriculum continues with emphasis on comprehension, critical thinking, and reader response. The study of English builds with emphasis on writing, editing, and understanding language. The math goes beyond the four basic operations. Social studies and science become more project based and more relevant.
