Francis Scott Key’s Middle school is an advanced academic site in which students need to be accepted based on their Elementary grades, conduct, attendance, and PARCC assessments.  We offer the following curriculum:

Math
We are a pilot school for Reveal Math, offering a supportive environment that emphasizes excellence in mathematics. Students who demonstrate proficiency in math have the opportunity to take an accelerated course in Geometry and Algebra 1 during grades 6 and 7. Students who successfully complete this accelerated math pathway will graduate with two high school math credits.

ELA
We use a combination of Wit & Wisdom and Springboard that compacts the curriculum to ensure that students are exposed to above grade level text throughout their middle school years.

Social Studies
Students in our honors classes participate in National History Day with an emphasis on Current Events and Entrepreneurship once students reach 7th grade.

Science
We utilize the IQWST curriculum and expose honors students to The Morgan State Science Fair Competition.
