OUR STARS

Our Students, whom we call STARs, are the most important piece of any operation on campus. Our STARs are supported with a robust array of services for academic support, artistic support, well-being, nutrition, and so much more. The overall success of our STARs hinges on what the school provides to thrust them into success. Students are encouraged to explore and experience the world - as a scholar, artists, and individuals devoted to their local community.

Our STARs are

Scholarly, Talented, Accomplished, & Resilient.

Students are provided with clubs and activities to support learning acquisition and help develop age-appropriate social skills. Many of our on-campus clubs are student created to ensure programming aligns with the needs and wants of our student population.

Family activities are included as well. Our school support families spending time together and creating a life-long bond. The school hosts family and community events, family resource nights, and family outings.
