Our Schools

We have a comprehensive educational system including 1 early childhood center, 12 elementary schools, 5 middle schools and 2 high schools.  We are very proud of our educators who take tried and true learning methods and pair them with state-of-the-art technology and teaching. Our schools truly prepare students for life.

At our elementary schools, we combine the best of the old and new. Our small class sizes ensure that every student gets the attention they need to learn and thrive. We provide all appropriate learning services including special education, English as a Second language and learning strategies to assure a great start for all our students.

At our middle schools, we begin to teach independent learning. Student class sizes are small, and students have a greater freedom to pair learning pace and style with their needs. Students get the preparation and education they need to prepare them for a successful high school career.

At our high schools, we begin preparing students for life. About 75% of our students will choose to continue their education after high school. Most will enroll at a 4-year college - including some of the most prestigious Ivy-league colleges and universities. Some will choose a local community college or technical school. About 12% of our students will choose to begin work after high school. Our Center for Technical Education helps assure that these students get started in a good, high-paying career such as auto technicians and chefs - and not just a job. Regardless of their direction and needs, we have the classes from basic to Advanced Placement to assure that they will be ready to meet their life goals.
