Junior High Program
Primed for success in the future, the St. Bartholomew Junior High program prepares students for academic success in high school, as well as encourages students to navigate the social and emotional challenges of adolescence. In Junior High, your student learns to hold his/herself to high academic standards, demonstrate critical thinkinking in all subjects, and create, collaborate, and communicate. Students are challenged to be their own advocate in the classroom and among their peers. With a continued emphasis on building Catholic character through authentic experiences.
A DAY IN THE CLASSROOM
A typical St. Bartholomew day involves hands-on, experiential learning in the science classroom and integrated technology in the Tech classroom, roundtable discussions on Tangerine or A Christmas Carol, and serving as servers and lectors during an all school Mass. Students become beautiful choral singers in the music elective and experiement with assemblage during Art. The core curriculum, combined with the extracurricular enrichment classes, allows students to grow as individuals of Christ within a community faith. St. Bartholomew Junior High students leave St. B's with a true sense of fellowship and belonging.
