St. Agnes School has its own middle school building for students in grades 6 to 8. The Catholic School is diverse compared to most schools in the area, offering an ESL program where other private schools in the area do not offer that type of program for second language learners. There are learning support teachers for grades K to 8. – Jenifer N.
