The middle school years are critical for a successful transition into high school. Students must develop stronger study skills and will become better at time management. Middle school courses are more rigorous and will demand more time spent on completing coursework. During middle school, students identify their academic strengths and weaknesses, so it’s essential to ensure that students are well supported and nurtured. In many cases, middle school forms the very foundation for high school and beyond.
