WYNCOTE ACADEMY MIDDLE SCHOOL PROGRAM
The middle school years are a time in the lives of children when they are faced with a series of physical, emotional, and social changes. As students leave behind the familiar routines and comforts of elementary school, they face new expectations that require greater demands — during what is often already a stressful time — making it hard for some children to succeed.
Our Wyncode admissions’ small, nurturing middle school learning environment is designed to help bridge the gap between the comforts of elementary school and the rigors of high school. This special needs education program for gifted students or students underserved by traditional education provides a broad range of academic, social, and emotional support. All of this is designed to help students develop the skills, habits, and understandings necessary to be successful in school and in life. Target skills include (but are limited to):
Good study habits
Social interactions & communication
Self-regulation
Organization
Self-advocacy
And more!
The small, closely supervised setting provides Wyncote Academy students with a safe environment and gives teachers quick insight to identify individual student's strengths and needs/challenges. Teachers use this data to both target instruction to address student needs and help students to leverage their strengths to achieve success.
OUR HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM
Traditional guidelines are followed at Wyncote Academy so our instructors can provide ample preparation for post-high school study. These guidelines encompass the four major academic subjects of English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. Enrichment studies in the humanities, arts, study skills, and career fields also help make up the balance of the high school schedule.
Students registered for our high school educational program are also required to partake in a diverse and individualized physical education program and a course in health. It is this enrichment program that has contributed to Wyncote being named one of the top private schools in the Philadelphia area.
