MIDDLE & HIGH SCHOOL
Discovery and Learning
Our upper grades consist of two divisions, Middle School (6th-8th) and High School (9th-12th) School Middle school serves as a time of transition for our students as they grow, mature and discover opportunities to succeed. Our high school nurtures students and serves as preparatory grounds to equip our students for college and beyond. Our school is a college preparatory program focusing on the development of academic skills that will prepare every student for any higher education program.

Excel students start researching colleges during their junior year and will begin the application process the fall of their senior year. Contact Julie French with any questions.
