Summer Reading
Over the years, we have noticed that students often come to Milton with a varying range of mythological, historical, and cultural background concerning Greece and Rome. To level the playing field for all students and to supplement our current Latin and Greek curriculum, the department has selected two to three books (depending on whether you are taking Latin or Latin AND Greek) from which you will read selections over the course of your Classics career at Milton Academy. The texts are all in English and touch on important aspects of Greek and Roman mythology, history, and daily life.

Athletics
Skilled coaches and teammates help students learn the great lessons of athletics: the value of hard work, preparation, risk-taking, collaboration, and winning and losing with dignity. Through interscholastic and intramural sports (as well as physical education courses), every Milton student is involved in physically active and challenging pursuits that help form an exceptional educational experience. For the athlete interested in interscholastic play, Milton offers three levels of competition in several sports. At all levels, experienced coaches guide our athletes. We help individuals and teams improve and succeed, while providing a framework for personal growth.

Performing Arts
Performing arts classes at Milton are grounded in collaboration and respect. Students and faculty learn together—by coming up with an idea, testing it, getting feedback, adapting, and trying again. This iterative “learning by doing” means that risk-taking is part of the plan. The ultimate goal is to share the art—acting, drama, dance, speech, design for the theatre—and to perfect the performance (in class and in rehearsal), students learn to trust one another. Faculty—skilled professionals in their field—model the work they want their students to take on, tapping into creativity and imagination, willing to fail and accept honest feedback. They create safe and exciting places—on stages and in studios—for students to take their love of performance to the highest level, or to try something new for the very first time.
