Middle School

Welcome to Saint George’s Middle School

Jamie Tender, Head of Middle School

The key to a successful Middle School is the teachers, and we work hard to get the best. Saint George’s Middle School faculty is dynamic, experienced and dedicated to teaching middle school students. If you are a parent of a 10- to 14-year-old, you understand the special touch and patience one needs to guide an adolescent down life’s path. The same holds true in the school environment. For students to succeed, we have to meet their social, emotional, cognitive and physical needs. Our teachers do just that, helping students “learn how to learn” in this rigorous academic environment.

We understand that students learn best when they are appropriately challenged. We help each student find their “growth zone” through small classes and teachers who get to know each student very well. Our school culture also supports this approach; the students expect to work hard and do well. It is a safe environment, so students are willing to take chances and be wrong on occasion, but they learn and grow from their mistakes.

We would welcome the opportunity to work with you and your child at Saint George’s Middle School.
