High School Profile & College Acceptances
Our campus is a vibrant hub of activity where each day ideas, interests, relationships and connections are forming and refining. Walking by the classrooms, one can hear conversations about the Odyssey, see students binding their own books, the seniors preparing for a play, and others researching mechanical engineering for rockets.
From early in the morning until late in the afternoon, the high school squad is teeming with it’s own small but incredibly well designed ecosystem that allows the adolescent to have a rich inner life, real relationships with peers and adults, and the opportunity to try and fail, learn, and try again, all while developing the necessary solid foundation for college and beyond.
Our High School Counseling Program, along with our Mentor Program, offers students academic, college, as well as social-emotional support.
