Ed.Council.Grad.Middleschool.Letter
St. Vincent Martyr School Middle School Academic Achievement During their tenure here at SVMS, students strive toward ever increasing academic challenges. SVMS middle school faculty work diligently to encourage students to study with greater focus and prepare more thoroughly for classes. Teachers share perspectives that enable students to think differently and more deeply about matters great and small. Recognizing the uniqueness and individuality of children, teachers guide them to discover and develop their God-given gifts. SVMS’s fundamental task is, and has always been, to educate the whole person by integrating Christian values with learning in daily life. On behalf of the Education Council, we are proud to share the following information about some recent academic successes of our middle school program. Academic Competitions In 2016, SVMS middle school grades participated in the NJ Math League for the second year in a row and placed well in regional standings against many other Morris County middle schools1. Here is a summary of the results by grade: • 6th grade - SVMS student achieved the highest individual score in Morris County • 7th grade - SVMS team ranked #4 in Morris County • 8th grade - SVMS team ranked #4 in Morris County. In 2015 and 2016, SVMS also participated in a national engineering competition called Future City, which is a program of DiscoverE. In January of 2015, SVMS sent one team to the New Jersey regional competition held in Rutgers, and they performed well. Our competing students enjoyed the experience so much that the SVMS program grew, and we were able to send two teams to the 2016 New Jersey regionals.
