Upper School

The Upper School program is designed to provide opportunities to develop the mind in all its facets: analytical, imaginative, and ethical.

A student's abilities mature and flower as he or she tackles classic forms of expression: the essay, public speaking, and the visual and performing arts. Creative and analytical skills are further expanded through the exploration of more advanced territories within science and mathematics. Perspective and critical thinking skills are developed through our rigorous humanities curriculum. Finally, the study of the Bible also provides an integration of Christian faith and learning central to the School's mission.

The Upper School faculty members are lifelong learners and passionate educators, chosen for their giftedness in their respective fields and their ability to communicate both their subject and their passion for it. They continue to travel, attend conferences, and do research to teach their subjects at the highest level.

Most of our faculty live on campus and are readily accessible to meet with students outside of the classroom.  Their contact information is also made available to all parents, since close communication is viewed as a vital part of the educational process.
