Perkins graduates enter middle school with far more than a strong academic foundation. They have a curiosity, eagerness, and zest for learning that has them leaning forward in their chairs!

We work closely with families throughout the transition to either a private or public middle school. We share insight and strategy in the search process, offering individualized support, guidance, and resources to help parents find the right fit for their child.  Perkins also hosts a “middle school night,” where alumni parents from both public and private middle schools discuss student life at their current schools, and offer advice on the middle school admissions process.

Perkins students attend a wide variety of middle schools, including independent schools, neighborhood public schools, and option schools.

We are proud to have alumni at the following middle schools:

  • BELLEVUE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
