The annual ECDS Middle School “Sneak Peek” Event on Wednesday, Nov 20th beginning at 3:30 pm, is a perfect opportunity to take a closer look at the unique ways that 6th, 7th, and 8th graders learn, collaborate, and thrive during their middle years at ECDS.

After a brief overview and introductions to core subject teachers, visitors will join a walking tour that visits each Middle School classroom. During the tour, teachers will discuss curriculum content, explain expectations, show student work, and answer questions.

Current students will also be on hand to demonstrate public speaking skills they acquired during public speaking classes they attend two times per week as part of the complement of enrichment classes enjoyed by ECDS Middle School students. Other enrichment classes included in the school day for all 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students are weekly music, art studio, and digital photography classes.
