MIDDLE SCHOOL PROGRAM

The Middle School Program is designed to nurture the intellectual, ethical, social, emotional, and physical development of students. The core academic program includes instruction in six major subject areas:

• English
• Mathematics
• Science
• Social Studies
• Religious Studies
• French

In addition, students choose three electives from a wide choice of classes including the arts, music, writing, and subjects of contemporary interest. Teachers take advantage of the richness of life in France and plan day trips and weeklong environmental study trips.

Middle school students are assigned an advisory teacher who monitors their progress in all areas. Marymount values all students for his or her unique talents, and challenges each student to reach his or her full potential, and achieve success.

GRADE 6

Grade 6 enjoy the many opportunities presented to them as a middle school student. They have new routines, independence and responsibilities. The transition from elementary school to middle school is made easier for them with the help and support of their teachers.  [more]

GRADE 7

They have had a number of interesting field trips this year, including a trip to Notre Dame Cathedral, Louvre Museum, Cluny Museum and Ile de la Cite.

GRADE 8

Grade 8 students are in their final year of middle school as well as their final year at Marymount. They will celebrate the end of their middle years schooling at a graduation ceremony and then a dinner dance with faculty and parents

TEAM BUILDING DAY

Middle school students participated in a team building day in the Bois de Boulogne in Paris on a bright sunny day in September.  Students took part in many games and activities, whilst having lots of fun.

SCIENCE

In September 2009 a new science lab opened in the Middle School building. 

On Friday, 11th May 2007, the Marymount lunchroom was transformed into a science exhibition by our own young budding scientists.

Congratulations to the winners and all participants who spent many hours preparing their presentations. A great job by all! (Click here for Science Fair photos)
