Our Curriculum
As a rigorous college preparatory school, Milken develops independent learners who take responsibility for their academic work and pride in their own success. The Milken curriculum for grades 6-12 is designed to provide a comprehensive liberal arts education integrated with the highest ideals of Judaism, fostering a sense of intellectual curiosity and spiritual growth.
At Milken, we believe in meaningful learning with multiple entry points, multiple means of demonstrating knowledge and multiple definitions of success. Our Upper School students pursue a challenging and varied course of study based on their abilities and developing interests. Typically, students carry no fewer than six academic subjects during each semester in grades 9 through 11 and no fewer than five in grade 12. All required academic classes meet five times over a two-week period.
At Milken, we know that learning also happens outside the walls of the classroom--the kind of learning that is absolutely essential in developing students who think well, belong to something greater than themselves and take positive action. Experiential learning is essential, and an important component of our curriculum that students look forward to each year.
Milken students learn and grow in an emotionally-responsive, developmentally-appropriate environment – one grounded in rigorous scholarship, ethical action and commitment to dynamic community.
We invite you to explore Milken's academic departments and we hope to see you on campus soon!

At Milken Community School, we think education is more than what you know. Our School, founded on Jewish values, is about who our children can become and how they can help others become who they might be. Because the world our children will create tomorrow is born in the School we build today, our mission is to educate our children so they can surpass us.
