TRURO CENTRAL SCHOOL ANNOUNCES GRADE 6 REGISTRATION
Truro Central School is inviting all families of students entering grade six for the 2025-2026 school year to visit Truro Central School to learn more about our Grade 6 program. The grade six program at Truro Central School will anchor its rigorous academic program to a project-based learning model, where students will apply their knowledge to identify and solve real world problems that impact the local community as well as on a global scale. This will be accomplished through strategic partnerships with local organizations and businesses as well as leveraging our school’s existing NOAA Ocean Guardian Program. Students will learn photography fundamentals and will each be issued a camera to help document their learning throughout the year. A gallery show of their photography and a class trip will be part of the culminating experiences planned for the end of the school year.
We welcome enrollment from families across the Lower Cape and Outer Cape Region. Truro Central School provides bus transportation from Orleans to Provincetown, and school choice seats are available in all grades.
