Who are We?
“You may know everything about your child, but we know everything about 2 to 18-year-olds. Let’s learn from each other.”
– Gardner Barrier, Head of School
Above all, we’re educational experts who know your child.
We believe that a truly excellent education integrates opportunities to explore a variety of interests while developing a strong academic base. It is this combination of passion and purpose that creates children who are curious, motivated, and excited to learn.
Our school is a special place where students are prepared for college and beyond. How are our students ready for what's ahead?
