What to expect in 5th grade

The bridge from elementary to middle school.

Fifth grade is the final year before middle school, and where everything comes together. Students tackle their most challenging academic content yet: complex fractions, long-form writing, advanced reading comprehension, and deeper scientific and historical analysis. Students also need to develop the self-management and organizational skills that middle school demands. At Score Academy, your child finishes elementary school ready. Every teacher knows exactly where each student stands, what they need, and how to prepare them for the next step.
