YOUR WORLD THIS IS
You wake each morning surrounded by friends.
You spend your days and evenings with teachers who know you so well they are practically family.
You live, learn, work, and play in a beautiful place that feels almost like home.

At every step you are valued, challenged, and supported. You belong.
This is where courage grows. 2025–26

LIVE INDEPENDENTLY TOGETHER
Imagine getting to spend all day, every day, learning and living with your best friends. Imagine never missing out because you’re always there when things happen. Imagine around-the-clock support and fun and the kind of deep relationships that are only possible in a 100% boarding environment. Imagine the powerful sense of truly belonging — to a community, to a place, to a legacy.

FACE CHALLENGE WITH STRENGTH
After class, take a short walk across campus and dive into your life outside the classroom. If you want to play, you can. Almost everyone does, whether championship-level competition or options for beginners. If you want to create, you can. Almost everyone does, whether joining the choir, taking the stage, or throwing a pot on the wheel. Here, you’ll have the time and resources to do the things you love — and the things you want to try.
