Welcome To THE 8th Grade Academy

The Eastpointe Middle School 8th Grade Academy provides a year-long transitional program to prepare students for success in high school. The school-within-a-school concept provides students with access to expanded advanced and elective course offerings.

In addition to strong academic offerings, students at the 8th Grade Academy have the opportunity to participate in student council, National Junior Honor Society, sports, and more.

 

The Eastpointe Secondary Campus Parent/Community Advisory Committee is hosting a pair of parenting workshops on April 10 and May 1. See this invitation for more information.
