Middle school students thrive on choice and variety. One way we support that need at Hyla is through our elective classes. Every quarter, Hyla students choose a general elective class, and a PE elective class from a diverse set of offerings created by faculty members.

The broad range of activities offered speaks to the multi-dimensional skills, talents and passions of our incredible faculty. They bring it all to each class, and invite students to explore new interests, subjects, and possibilities. When students choose an elective, they are often choosing an interest or passion that will stay with them for life, or an area of study that will guide them professionally in the future. Many alumni return to tell us how electives shaped their paths.

Just as students learn that faculty are multi-dimensional people with a variety of interests, they learn to recognize and appreciate this same complexity in themselves.
