Middle and High School Choice

Education helps young people grow into themselves.

Middle school is a tumultuous time for many pre-teens. High school is hectic for adolescents. What each student needs is a combination of learning skills, social connections, academic content, experiences and mentors to help them develop.

What opportunities will your child explore on their path through the teen years, to college and beyond?

Art of Education offers talks on middle and high school choices. We also offer private consultations for students and parents to help define an ideal learning environment.

For those considering independent schools, Art of Education offers guidance on the admissions process, preparation for school interviews, tests and application essay reviews.
