Why only Middle School
Middle school is a critical time for personal, social, emotional, and intellectual development. Students are not only developing the academic skills they will need in high school, but they are also undergoing significant personal changes that shape their identities, relationships, and worldview. The experiences, challenges, and growth that happen during this time lay the foundation for success in high school, college, and adulthood. Schoolhouse offers small class sizes and differentiated learning that are proven to best support the middle-schooler during these formative years. By targeting our teaching to just this group, we can meet the indivual needs of every student, and empower them for high school and beyond.
Our Teaching pillars
Our instruction methods were created by our founder Gwyneth Wallace, who has over thirty years of teaching experience. Student autonomy and family relationships are integral to a quality, child-driven program. We will work together to create a robust and enjoyable program for your student to foster a genuine love of learning.
Curriculum & Schedules
Our curriculum choices change based on what will work best for each student. We offer core academics in the mornings and electives in the afternoons for full and half-day students who commit to our full week program. We also offer standards-based ELA and Math classes in the late afternoons.
