Guided Choice and Increased Autonomy - Essential t Guided Choice and Increased Autonomy - Essential to the adolescent years, our Omega Middle School program ensures that student autonomy is nurtured, student passions are celebrated, and young people are reinforced in their own ability to work through difficulty and challenge. This culture of guided independence is strengthened by the depth of relationship fostered between the students and their teachers. 

J-Term Electives are just one of the many ways guided choice and increased autonomy is fostered. In this first week following the Winter Break, students dip their toes into a week of mini electives designed to allow student creativity and interests bloom.
