Every new school year is the beginning of a new journey, especially for the 6th graders. Why? Because this is their first year in middle school, which to them, is a whole new level of experience. The 6th graders have different impressions of the Priory, an environment for them to gain knowledge, make friends, and create memories. Cole Blevins (6) believes that “Middle school is an extremely different experience, but it is great how welcoming and nice people are.” Walker Rust (6) agrees and adds on “ I volunteered at open house and had several shadows, and it is so nice to meet new people.” Transitioning into middle school, the workload and expectations increase, and the 6th graders have learned so much this school year. One of Cole’s favorite classes is English, and he loves how he “always feels accomplished when [he] improve[s].” Not only academics, but also extracurriculars are an important part of the 6th graders’ lives. To Walker, his favorite thing to do at Priory is to play basketball with his friends:
“During my time at Priory, I want to achieve my goal of getting really good at basketball.” His teammate Will Tomlinson (6) agrees, adding that “Everyone in Priory seems to have a sport they are good at, and it is very fun to play with everyone.” His favorite thing to do on campus besides sport is playing ping pong, and he loves how “Ping pong is embodied in everyday life.” Trying out different classes, attending different events, and playing different sports, the 6th graders are just beginning their adventure, and they can’t wait for more in their next few years at Priory!
