Grades 9-12

Our high school program is thoughtfully designed to prepare our students for post-secondary life.  The upper school years emphasize leadership, self discovery, and the importance of responsibility.  Core subjects continue to be taught within the pedagogy of a multi-sensory approach.  Weekly executive function concepts are highlighted and extended into facilitated study labs. The curriculum, paired with a block schedule, allows students to dive deeper into their learning in longer class periods. In addition to the weekly Advisory program, the entire Upper School assembles for Community Meeting, Harkness Discussion, and Inter-House challenges, reinforcing the strong ties among students and faculty.
