Honors Courses
Our middle school campuses offer a variety of honors courses in math and English Language Arts (ELA) for 6th-8th grade students identified as gifted.
Connolly also offers a Project Based Learning (PBL) elective designed to challenge gifted students at their level of intellectual ability. The course consists of hands-on learning opportunities and projects engaging in the practical experience of applying what students have learned.
Please reach out to the school office to learn about the honors courses that may be available to your student.
