Middle School Curriculum

A departmentalized schedule of studies prepares the students in grades 6 - 8 for high school. A team of seven teachers provides a challenging curriculum, which includes small class groupings for English and Math. Classes are offered in fine arts, technology, drama, filmmaking, art and P.E. The Physical Education program includes an optional "zero period" before the regular school day begins. A resource teacher and a school counselor complement the middle school faculty.


Student activities include a leadership program involving an elected student council and class representatives. Throughout the year students coordinate spirited school wide activities and opportunities to serve others through an active outreach program. An outdoor school program in grade six, Discovery Days for seventh and eighth grades and school dances for grades 6 - 8, provide social activities that encourage wholesome student interactions.

Graduates enter local high schools in Livermore or continue their education at one of the Catholic or private high schools in the surrounding area.

Sixth Grade
Sixth grade is the official beginning of the middle school program. It is both challenging and exciting, as students learn to navigate through the program they are preparing themselves for the challenges of high school.

Seventh Grade
Our religion program focuses on the life of Jesus Christ, the study of the Gospels, the lives of saints, the structure of the Church, prayer and the importance of our Catholic faith.

Eighth Grade
The unifying theme throughout the school year is the call to discipleship. Students study and  discuss how to live out the Commandments, the Beatitudes, Works of Mercy, and the Catholic social teachings.
