- November 13, 2025: 9:30 am on Teel Campus
The middle school years represent a critical time in a student's development. And it can be challenging. Independence. Distractions. Growth. All of which are new, both to students and parents. It is during these formidable years that Severn focuses on meeting students where they are.
At this special information session, you’ll learn how Severn helps students successfully navigate the middle school years by building an academic foundation and supporting the social and emotional growth that takes place from sixth to eighth grades. You’ll hear from faculty and current students about how Severn facilitates academic skill building, the adjustment to independence and increased accountability, and the integration of adolescent health and wellness topics into the curriculum.
The event includes a one-hour conversational session, followed by an optional campus tour. This small group style event is for parents only and limited space is available. Please also note that this event is a supplement to the MS Open House on October 23, not a replacement. Here we offer a more in-depth look into Severn's MS philosophy and programming and the opportunity to get your questions answered.
