Middle School

The middle school environment at St. Luke’s provides for early adolescents to become critical thinkers, inquisitive and creative learners, effective communicators, servant leaders, respectful community members, and team players. There is no pressure for our students to grow up too fast.

Faculty and staff are experienced in middle school education. During these critical years, we recognize that there must be a balance between growing independence and responsibility with a continued need for support, encouragement, and limitations.

“I had a great time at St. Luke’s. I learned and grew so much with the help of my teachers, fellow classmates, and the staff. I had so many great memories while I attended St. Luke’s. One of my favorite memories was going on the 5th-grade field trip and dissecting the shark. It was a great experience. I was very prepared going into high school and didn’t have a hard time adjusting to my new school. St. Luke’s was an amazing school and helped shape me into the person I am today.”
