Middle School
We designed our middle school curriculum to raise the level of knowledge students gained in elementary school. Across grades 6–8, students advance with confidence toward high school.
Stage Pillars
Deeper knowledge on familiar ground
Students build on what they have already mastered, within a subject structure they know well.
Raising the Level of Knowledge
The curriculum starts from what students mastered in elementary school and takes every subject to a deeper level.
A Consistent Subject Structure
The same structure as elementary school — core, essential, and elective subjects — with content that deepens at every grade.
Guidance Counselor
The dedicated counselor for grades 1–8 continues to follow and support students throughout this stage.
Study Plan
Subjects that build a balanced study plan
In every grade, students take a set of core and essential subjects, alongside electives that broaden as they move up through the stages.
Core Subjects
Four subjects studied at every grade level, deepening year after year.
Essential Subjects
Identity and language subjects — an integral part of the study plan every year.
Elective Subjects
Courses students choose to widen their horizons and develop their interests.

Students who complete middle school receive an official transcript documenting their academic record.
