About

We educate students from grades 6-12. All students wear a school uniform and participate in the Leadership Cadet Program. Our school culture is built on respecting others and our mission is to challenge the minds of our students each day both in and out of class. We expect our students to develop career goals and to cultivate the leadership traits and principles that are taught during the Leadership Cadet Program on Friday evenings.
