The Academy is a nurturing and challenging environment for cadets in grades 6th thru 12th. With a rigorous curriculum the Upper School (9th thru 12th) will promote the development of respectful, thinking, responsible, and ethical young men and women. While the curriculum easily supports preparatory work for university and college, it is more than that as it enables cadets to prepare for whatever the 21st Century will bring.
