The Boltz 6th Grade Team is dedicated to ensuring a successful transition from elementary to middle school. (Our team members' bios are listed on the left.) In addition to several daily programs that help students adjust, Boltz has a Team Building day at the beginning of the school year, and the WEB program to help students adjust to middle school.
Team Building Day
Team Building Day encourages 6th graders to work and play together with their 8th grade WEB leaders and 6th grade teachers. The day includes activities that draws students closer and pushes the boundaries of their comfort zones - the Gaga Pit, Hungry, Hungry Hippo, SEL work - all intended to build connections and community.

WEB Leaders
WEB, which stands for “Where Everybody Belongs” is a middle school orientation and transition program that welcomes 6th graders and makes them feel comfortable throughout the first year of their middle school experience. Built on the belief that students can help students succeed, the program trains mentors from your 8th grade class to be WEB Leaders. As positive role models, WEB Leaders are mentors and student leaders who guide the 6th graders to discover what it takes to be successful during the transition to middle school and help facilitate 6th grade success.
