Middle School
Outside of class, Milton's Middle School students can choose from among many opportunities. Through co-curricular activities, middle schoolers build skills, explore interests, learn how to lead, offer valuable service, meet new people and have fun.
Activities periods, every Wednesday from 11:50 a.m. until 1:20 p.m., are part of every student’s schedule. Students choose one activity in September and another in January, and participate for a full semester. Faculty advise the groups and facilitate the meetings.
Examples of activities:
Speech Team, Jazz Combo, digital photography, yearbook, rock climbing, newspaper and outdoor games.
Speech Team is available for the full year. Drama is available in the fall semester. A students-of-color affinity group is available after school.
Cultural Awareness for Everyone (CAFÉ) is an activity open to all Middle School students. Students learn about different cultural backgrounds and talk about ways to appreciate and support differences within and outside of School.
Lower School

For Kindergarten through Grade 3, the program is in session every afternoon after regular school days—from dismissal until 5:45 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, and noon to 5 p.m. on Friday. The After School Program environment is supportive, comfortable and relaxed. Children participate in a variety of organized activities, as well as unstructured use of time and space in the Junior Building, including outdoor facilities.
