Guided Growth & Exploration

ISQ's middle school has distinctive qualities that provide a learning environment in which all of our students are welcomed, accepted, and valued by teachers and peers. Passionate teachers guide our students through core learning offerings and extra and co-curricular activities, which build on learning and areas of interest from younger years.

Research shows teacher-student relationships have the most significant impact on student learning. Every middle school student belongs to a small advisory group, with an advisor that guides them, where they discuss and solve learning issues, and set goals.

In addition, middle school students at ISQ also expand into new subjects that aren't offered in Elementary, which broadens their talents, responsibility, leadership, and love of learning.
