Upper School (6-12)

In our Upper School, students are challenged to mature in their learning and moral growth. As they mature and accept more responsibility, they gain more independence. In the classical tradition, the middle school is the “Logic Stage” where students learn to pursue truth through questions and logical dialogue and high school is the “Rhetoric Stage” where students learn to express the truth clearly and powerfully.
