Definition

  • It is during the middle school years that young adolescents form attitudes about education, particularly a subject like science, and its relevance to their future. Middle school (usually Grades 6–8) is a school between elementary school (usually Grades 1–5) and high school (usually Grades 9–12); the local school district determines what grades are in a given middle school.In most middle schools, students change teachers after each period, which can range from 50 to 90 minutes.
