Our middle and high school community is a place where students and faculty alike learn together through experience. We believe that becoming a lifelong learner happens naturally when we are engaged in relevant, authentic experiences. The actions and activities we select are not only intended to practice the skills that will prepare our students for college success, but more importantly to practice the skills that will prepare our students to be responsible, global citizens as adults. At KCA, we believe each student has a unique and important contribution to make in the world, and that this contribution will be born out of matching his or her authentic talent with the identified needs of the world.
6th, 7th and 8th Grade "Suspended between childhood and the adult world, pre-teens have been called the toughest to teach." Peter Meyer Approaching your teen years can be both an exciting time and difficult as well. With student roles changing as well as their bodies, they are truly learning who they are and how they relate to the world. Making the change to a new school can be daunting and confusing. For these reasons we approach Middle School children with their needs and questions in mind.
