The Middle School

Grades 6 – 8

Agnon’s middle school program continues to challenge and stimulate students academically, building upon earlier grades. Practice in critical and creative thinking builds strong, lifelong learners. Agnon also fosters social, emotional and ethical growth for the adolescent years. These are the years when students begin to develop their independence.

Agnon provides a solid foundation in Jewish heritage at a time when these students are thinking about their family and their own religious traditions. It also encourages a strong sense of belonging to a community as well as a peer group.
