Our Middle School teachers clearly understand the developmental needs of young adolescents, including the need for connections with peers and a separation from family, paired with a strong desire for personal power, a deep longing to be listened to, and heightened self-consciousness and self-absorption.
In response, the CWA Middle School fosters relationships and bonds between students and teachers that promote friendship and teamwork — because we know that students work harder for people about whom they care and in whom they trust. Teachers strive to earn respect from their students by being kind and firm, generous and truthful, and always available.
