Middle School at ICS is a thriving community of professionals that deeply recognize the unique, changing physical, emotional and academic needs of middle school students need to be addressed with a growth mindset approach. As we value the need for students to learn in a way that meets their individual academic needs and instilling a growth mindset, we provide our students with a personalized learning approach that enables student agency over learning.

As a school that embodies Professional Learning Communities, our teachers facilitate learning through enquiry, action and reflection. They work collaboratively in grade-level teams to ensure that we continuously answer the four essential PLC questions. As part of our belief in student agency of learning, we organize Student Led Conferences in spring to allow students describe their growth and achievements throughout the year.

Our classrooms are arranged in ways that encourage and enhance cooperative learning. We are a place where one can find students huddled around tables and laptops or stretched out in carpets collaborating in a culture of inquiry and critical learning.

ICS has been an amazing experience for Caleb. We saw a great deal of self confidence in our son. Grateful to have experienced ICS.
