Parent/Student Handbook

For the 2007-2008 school year, Meeting House Hill School has about 700students.  Homerooms average about 23 students each.  Grades three, four  and fiveeach have 11 homerooms.  
Our school, with grades 3-5, is in between the primary and middle school grades.  It's a wonderful age group, a time known as "middle childhood."  We are the bridge between the self-contained class of the primary years and the more departmentalized program typical of middle schools.  Students in fifth grade will generally have several teachers, while those in third and fourth will remain with one or two teachers for most of the day.
In addition to the normal academic program, Meeting House Hill offers before and after school programs in school band, intramurals, and chorus.  We encourage your child to take part in these programs as they are an integral part of his/her education.
