The middle school years at Notre Dame are the culminating experience of the Notre Dame education. For those who have been with us since Kindergarten, the middle school years are a capstone of honing skills in socratic discussion, critical thinking, writing, and project based learning. It is where they perfect the craft of being curious and engaged learners who self advocate and learn from adults in their lives.
For those who tranfer into the middle school, the Notre Dame middle school experience is an introduction and full immersion into the Notre Dame apprenticeship-mentor model of education, where students are integrated into a 7th and 8th grade class focused on student-led learning, critical reading, writing, and educational curiosity.
We invite you to explore more about our middle school experience at the menu to the left!
