Middle School
Seventh and Eighth Grade at Inly
A defining, holistic education for the developing adolescent
- Inly’s innovative Middle School program is based on extensive research on how 12- to 14-year-olds learn best.
- Our comprehensive academic curriculum is integrated, interactive and, whenever possible, experiential.
- Seminar-style classes employ the Socratic method for in-depth exploration of literature, language, critical and creative writing, history, geography and current events.
- Students study algebra and geometry, working with concrete examples to understand abstract math concepts.
- Guided by Inly's core values, students develop a remarkable sense of self-knowledge, confidence and community.
Students work to their personal best with courses and instruction tailored to challenge each individual to reach their highest academic potential.
