Curriculum MIDDLE SCHOOL As one of only three Core Knowledge schools in the state, Seven Peaks’ curriculum helps ensure enduring knowledge in math, oral and written expression, world history and science. We delve deep in these subject areas, employing experiential learning, A sampling of our middle school topics is below: In addition to building knowledge in core areas, we include art, music and foreign language to promote creativity and enable students to engage in intellectual “cross-training.” The use of technology in the classroom supports our focus on college preparatory curriculum. Our program is designed to facilitate academic growth as well as to give students a comprehensive understanding of technological tools. We have several classroom sets of computers and projectors for both the elementary and the middle school. Beginning in third grade students regularly create PowerPoint presentations, use Geometry Sketchpad in math classes, learn to use Excel including writing macros, and use keyboarding and word processing programs. Computer use at home is integral as well - students use on-line learning tools and our school website to stay in touch with their teachers and assignments. Ultimately, Seven Peaks is dedicated to enacting the philosophy of an integrated and dynamic technology program within the classroom. With high expectations and an unparalleled commitment to educating the whole child, Seven Peaks truly takes education to the next level.
