Charleston Collegiate recognizes that students make the transition from childhood to young adulthood during their years in the Middle School. During this time, students are discovering themselves as well as figuring out the balance between the demands of personal responsibilities and the need for supportive, nurturing adult guidance. This is a task that the Charleston Collegiate Middle School faculty embraces with enthusiasm and great care. The academic expectations in the Middle School are challenging and there is an emphasis on exposure to broad artistic, cultural, and social experiences. Students enjoy an average class size of 12-15 and are each involved in an advisory system that enables students to receive individual guidance and support. Trained professionals in the Academic Achievement Program also offer support and/or accommodations for those students with unique needs. In the Middle School at Charleston Collegiate, we strive to promote the personal qualities that make each individual student unique, as well as to develop responsible global citizens and effective future leaders.
