MIDDLE SCHOOL
The Middle School years form the critical
transition period from a student competent in the basics
of reading, writing and mathematics to one who has not
only fully mastered them, but is launching into more serious
academic study. For
Middle School students, our concentration is on maintaining
the standard of those basic tools learned earlier, becoming
focused and independent as student, getting an increased
conceptual understanding of how academic subjects integrate
and relate to real life, and raising the student's willingness
and ability to draw conclusions and make judgments.
The academic program at the La Jolla campus only goes
through Elementary School, equivalent to completion of
sixth grade. San Marcos offers a Lower School program
only, equivalent to completion of third grade. Middle
School and Upper School students are encouraged to continue
their Delphi Program at The
Delphian School in Sheridan, Oregon
