Advisory Program

The advisory program is a central feature of the Middle School Bartram Campus student experience. Small groups of students are assigned an advisor, and this advisory group becomes a home base for each child, a place where they find guidance, camaraderie, and joy. The advisor supports each advisee's individual academic, social and emotional needs and serves as a point person for their advisees. For parents, the advisor is a valuable resource and partner in their child’s education.

Each advisory group meets regularly to develop strong connections and a sense of community. On Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays, the group checks in with their advisor before the first period of the day. On Thursdays, the group spends time together during a designated 40-minute Advisory Period built into our schedule. During this time, they engage in meaningful discussions and fun bonding activities. Typical themes focus on The Bolles Way, the Honor Code, goal setting, organizational skills, character development and kindness.
