Our school is an environment where you will be known well, cared for, and graduate knowing that there is nothing that cannot be accomplished with perseverance, the pursuit of knowledge and community involvement. We strive to be a place where all of our students are accepted to college, confident that they have the knowledge, skills, and habits that will ensure them post-graduation success with their academic endeavors, careers, and healthy lives.
HOW WE WILL SUCCEED
In a small school with a culture that values good teaching, creative programming, and broad community/parent engagement, students achieve great things. We have created a small, personalized and intellectually demanding school. Reducing our school size, however, is not on its own sufficient to achieve the positive academic gains and social outcomes that we envision. We strive to ensure that you will receive an excellent education.
