Middle School Program (Levels 7-8)

Offered during Academic Year  

This is a 10-month course starting from the last week of August to the end of June of the next calendar year. This course is designed to provide a solid foundation in Math problem solving, English Reading and Writing, and Science data analysis. In Math and English courses, topics like arithmetic, algebra, geometry concepts, grammar, vocabulary, reading, and essay writing will be thoroughly covered. In Science, students will focus on data analysis, research summaries, and conflicting viewpoints while applying these skills to craft responses to science problem-solving essay prompts. This course helps build the foundation required for success in the TJ/ACL prep stages as well as for the PSAT/SAT and ACT exams. The knowledge gained in this course instills confidence in students that will support their success in high school, college, and future careers. Classes meet only once a week during the first four months and increase to more than once weekly in the next six months.

This is a 12-month course offered during the academic year, starting from the second week of July and continuing until the end of June the following calendar year. Only students who have completed Algebra-I in the seventh grade will be accepted into this course. There are two pathways for the Level 8 course. Those not interested in TJ/ACL prep will focus on Geometry in Math, as well as grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and essay writing in English from July through December. Conversely, students aiming for TJ/ACL prep will engage in the components necessary for success in the TJ/ACL admission process—including essay writing—along with grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension in English during the same timeframe. In the second half of the course, students from both paths will be integrated, where they will study Algebra-II and Trigonometry in Math and SAT/ACT essay writing in English from January to June. This comprehensive program equips students with the skills required for meeting the TJ/ACL admission criteria and for achieving success on the PSAT, SAT, and ACT later on. The knowledge gained in these Math and English courses builds confidence in students, setting a strong foundation for success in high school, college, and their future careers.
