Primed for success beyond the doors of St. Philip Neri the middle school program prepares students for academic success in high school, while encouraging students to navigate the social and emotional challenges of adolescence. In middle school, your student learns to hold his/herself to high academic standards, demonstrate critical thinkinking in all subjects, and create, collaborate, and communicate. Students are challenged to be their own advocate in the classroom and among their peers. With a continued emphasis on building Catholic character through authentic experiences, St. Philip Neri middle school teachers help students enrich their faith and promote goodness, discipline, and knowledge.

A DAY IN THE CLASSROOM
A typical day in middle school involves hands-on, experiential learning in the science lab and integrated technology with their personal Chrombooks, roundtable discussions in Language Arts class, and serving as lectors and servers during an all school Mass. Students learn chimes in the music elective and experiment with assemblage during Art. The core curriculum, combined with the ancillary enrichment classes, allows students to grow as individuals of Christ within a community of faith.
Students in middle school switch classes between their lessons. Each class is taught by a teacher who has a specialty in the field they teach. All students take courses in English, Literature, History, Theology, Math, and Science four to five times per week. Additionally, middle school students take Physical Education, Health, Music and Art classes along with trips to the library.
