In the 7-12 school, will all the grades be together? Will 7th graders have classrooms in close proximity to juniors and seniors?

With lower grades on the Belmont 7-12 School campus, careful work will be done to ensure adequate separation between younger and older students. Some strategies that may be employed to achieve this include: physical separation of classroom wings; adjusting school schedules such that older and younger students arrive and depart at different times; and carefully controlling the flow of students through communal areas.

Additionally, there are many exciting educational opportunities that exist when 7th and 8th grades are included on a high school campus. The opportunities for thoughtful educational connections between grades could include mentoring programs and other cross-grade learning opportunities as well as access to shared robotics labs, maker spaces, and other educational areas.
