SIXTH GRADE

Sixth grade is a pivotal transition in a young adolescent's life! As we introduce 6th graders to the systems and methods that make EMS unique we also take great care in empowering our students to become independent learners that are in control of their time, work, and personal academic goals.

Our theme studies include our human body systems; population dynamics and ecosystems; energy transfer; astronomy; and cultural studies. Our theme work has included collaborations with NC Museum of Natural Sciences, YWCA, NCSU Centennial Wildlife Center, Duke Lemur Project, UNC Planetarium and Project OBSERVE, Cameron Village Library, Camp Kanuga, and various community leaders.
