Middle School
6th 7th, and 8th grade
Beverly Hills Academy Middle School marks a significant period of transition for students in grades 6th through 8th. During this time, students will experience a thoughtful shift as they move from the nurturing environment of elementary school to the more demanding atmosphere of Middle School. At Beverly Hills Academy, Middle School students will receive both academic and personal support, as they are challenged to grow into independent and creative thinkers. The curriculum is rigorous, complemented by hands-on experiences both inside and outside the classroom, ensuring students are well-prepared for their educational journey. A strong partnership between students, parents, and teachers creates a safe and positive environment.
The Middle School faculty consists of dedicated teachers who possess a wealth of knowledge and employ diverse teaching methods suitable for this age group. Students are encouraged to embrace leadership roles, and teachers provide ample opportunities for hands-on and student-led activities. In addition to the core college preparatory curriculum, Middle School students can explore various subjects such as Computers, Music, and Art. The Arabic Language and Islamic Studies programs foster a sense of community, enabling students to maintain their Islamic dignity and character while deepening their understanding of Islamic traditions and values. Recognizing that students have different learning styles, a range of testing methods is employed to develop critical thinking and writing skills.

Students are encouraged to be mindful of the needs of others and actively engage in community service. Within the school community, Middle School students have the opportunity to host visiting students and serve as tour guides during school events. They also participate in various activities aimed at raising funds for local charities. Additionally, students have the chance to engage in individual or group service projects within the Metro-Detroit area. On designated service days, students volunteer at local agencies such as assisted living facilities, shelters, and food banks.
To excel academically, even the most intelligent students must acquire effective study skills.
