                   Upper School provides a place for young people to discover the power of the individual and to develop the

 
                   talents and skills that will make them leaders in their communities. Through a demanding course of study,
                   high-achieving students find the challenge they need and deserve. Our student body includes young people
                   with wide-ranging abilities and diverse backgrounds who share one common goal - to be well prepared for

                   college.  Our faculty members recognize that each young person is different, that students learn  differently

                   and have different intellectual needs.
