IHM-St. Luke's recognizes the unique academic, social, and emotional needs
of middle school. We set high expectations,
offer a strong academic program and provide the encouragement and support
needed for success. We launch students into young adulthood from a safe, caring environment,
grounded in Christian values.
To ease the transition to junior high, sixth-graders take a year-long
study skills class and stay with their home room classmates as they move
from one classroom to another.

Small class sizes allow students to get to know their teachers.
Recognition programs reward academic success and positive behavior. Churchwerks, an internet-based grading system,
lets students and parents check grades and assignments online.
