Middle School

With Confidence

With just 140 students in grades 6–8, our program blends cozy, supportive spaces with wide-open opportunities for exploration, creating an environment where students can grow with confidence.

With Joy

In classrooms of just 13 students on average, faculty work closely with each child to discover their unique strengths and guide their continued development. Learning is both rigorous and joyful — whether students are studying probability by designing mini-golf courses, acting out stories in English class, engaging in Harkness-style discussions, or collaborating in debates and hands-on projects. This kind of active, student-centered learning is the hallmark of a Hun Middle School education.

With Care

Beyond the classroom, programs like The Hun Way, advisory, guided self-assessments, and our after-school Learning Lab provide structured support and meaningful connections. Here, students build strong relationships with teachers and peers while developing independence, self-awareness, and essential academic skills.

With Curiosity

A traditional preparatory curriculum is balanced by hands-on, project-based learning, along with a rich array of arts, athletics, and activities. Whether on the field, in the classroom, or on stage, students are encouraged to explore new interests and discover their passions.

With Purpose

Rooted in the School’s core values of academic excellence, integrity, kindness, respect, and trust, the Hun Middle School fosters a community where students feel a true sense of belonging. They leave prepared not only for the challenges of Upper School, but with the confidence, curiosity, and character to thrive well beyond it.
