Signature Experiences
Our 6th and 7th graders have the opportunity to engage in a fall camping trip, explore the environment and participate in team-building activities. 8th graders spend three days experiencing life in Colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown, participating in role-playing situations and touring the sites.
The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. Students in 11th and 12th grade can take two-year IB courses and may test in May of their senior year for IB credit and possible college credit, similar to AP Exams.
