Head of School Carly Andrews
Baker Demonstration School Middle School Open House (Grades 6-8)
In Middle School, students develop skills that will help them thrive in later life: approaching collaborative work democratically, trusting their instincts enough to step into leadership, and advocating for themselves so they get the experiences they need to deepen their understanding.
At Baker Demonstration School, students learn in an experiential environment that invites creative design thinking and innovation – inside and out of the classroom – they develop prerequisite mastery of the subject areas they will study in high school.
Learn more about Baker and our approach to Middle School education at our Open House. Head of School Carly Andrews will share more information about the Middle School with tours of the school to follow.
Baker follows COVID-19 guidance from the CDC, IDPH and CCDPH, in consultation with our Health Advisory team. More information about our procedure will be provided upon registration.
