Overview of Middle School Curriculum
Each student at Longfellow Middle School will take seven classes each semester. Five of the seven periods are filled with courses that are required for all students: English, math, social studies, science, and physical education. The remaining two periods are filled with a combination of yearlong and/or semester courses from the following departments: visual or performing arts, business and information technology, family and consumer science, world languages, and engineering.
To supplement the regular education curriculum, several courses are offered to give students additional support in developing English and math skills necessary for success at the high school level. Longfellow Middle School also provides MLL (Multi-lingual Learner), SPED, and AVID classes to support students’ academic needs.
