Academic Blocks & Building the Whole Child

By engaging students in integrated, authentic experiences we are able to close the achievement gap and inspire passion for future careers. We strive to instill empathy in our students by looking at issues from multiple viewpoints and by providing a variety of opportunities to learn.

Our School

ECMS houses students from sixth grade through eighth grade. Built in 1914 and located in the Garfield community, the Middle School has easy access to public transit and bike trails. The building sits on an almost 3-acre site and accommodates the school’s unique out-the-door learning approach. In an urban location, the property has upper and lower green spaces outside of the school to double as outdoor learning environments for the students and a space for the community. Several community spaces and parks are within walking distance.
