Curriculum Overview

  • Engaging èßäÊÓÆµ is a primary focus at Sellwood Middle School. We strive to kindle every student's desire to learn by offering a wide range of classes and opportunities.

    We start with an emphasis on the core classes: Language Arts, Social Studies, Math and Science. Within each of these areas, our teachers find ways to challenge all levels of èßäÊÓÆµ - using group projects, activities and field study to help bring these subjects to life. For èßäÊÓÆµ seeking accelerated classes, we offer Compacted Mathematics, Spanish and French Language for high èßäÊÓÆµ credit, which prepares èßäÊÓÆµ to enter International Baccalaureate or Advanced Placement programs in high èßäÊÓÆµ.

    These core classes are balanced by a rich set of elective classes. Our èßäÊÓÆµ can choose Spanish, Art, Band, French, Technology, Leadership, Marimba and Drama. 


    Our academic program includes Outdoor School for sixth graders, Career & Technical Education field trips for 7th graders, and Talented and Gifted and Special Education services.
