Upper School
Grade 9 - 12
Thinking deeply and leading with character.
Upper School students graduate prepared for college and a lifetime of independent learning through exposure to challenging and traditional coursework, discussion of diverse ideas and development of essential skills like writing, research, analysis and presentation. As students collaborate and innovate in the exploration of their intellectual passions, they find themselves well-equipped to effectively take on college coursework and post-collegiate opportunities.
Curricular Travel
We want our students to not only learn about diverse cultures and unique perspectives, but also experience them first hand and up close! Travel is one way we enrich classroom learning and develop more empathetic global citizens. Past trip locations include Iceland, Japan, Switzerland, Washington D.C., and more!
