Our philosophy of education is based on the principles of personal autonomy, responsibility, and excellence. These are ideals with timeless appeal. Some of the features that have grown out of our philosophy of education are reflected in the following ways:
- An environment that emphasizes autonomy
- Small, well-managed classes with limited enrollment
- Teachers who teach by guiding, not lecturing, students
- A rigorous emphasis on practical academic skills
- Knowing the measure of success in attaining one’s best
- A school setting where personal responsibility is critical.
