Celebrating 57 years of excellence in academics and the arts, Colonial Middle School offers students a world-class education in a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility. Colonial offers Optional Programs in both Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA) and Enriched Academics, helping students to cultivate their talents in the realms of creativity, the visual and performing arts, and academics. Students e

nrolled in the school’s CAPA Program gain exposure to cultural appreciation, broaden their creative abilities, develop performance skills, and combine academic excellence with superior instruction in the arts. Colonial’s CAPA students have a proven success record in local, regional, and international performance festivals, workshops, and competitions. Colonial students have the opportunity to travel all over the world to participate in these events, and in recent years, they have traveled to China, Italy, Germany, Austria, England, France, and Canada, as well as throughout the United States, including Hawaii. Students in Colonial’s Enriched Academics Program engage in challenging coursework in the areas of Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. Students may enroll in advanced classes in core subject areas, in addition to exploratory courses in Art, Band, Choir, General Music, Computer, Facing History and Ourselves, Spanish, Teen Living, Health, and Physical Education. Students wishing to get a head start on their high school education may enroll in Algebra I✦ and Spanish I✦ for high school credit. Physical Science is also taught to eighth grade students who qualify. Field trips and extracurricular activities help to create a well-rounded middle school experience for all Colonial Middle School students. Colonial has earned a well-deserved reputation for success in nurturing each student’s unique talents. Colonial’s Drama Program has produced many highly successful performers, including Deidra Shores, who was previously selected from among 40,000 applicants to become the winner of The Today Show’s national Kid Reporter Contest. In addition to being nurtured in academics and the arts, Colonial students are encouraged to be well rounded by developing positive character traits, becoming responsible citizens, and developing their athletic skills.

* Students must meet eligibility requirements to participate.

✦ These courses have prerequisites. Participation is dependent on grades from the previous school year and standardized achievement test results.

Do you remember
The 21st night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin'
In the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh, yeah
