Five science labs, smartboards in every classroom, seven playing fields, band and choral rooms, a crafts shop and two art studios are just a few key resources for an outstanding faculty, curious and engaged students and a supportive parent body.

Families interested in pursuing excellence and investing in a strong educational foundation are invited to tour the campus by appointment, or at one ofthe Open Houses (November through April.)
