• We firmly believe that knowledge of what was, joined with the imagination of what could be, and examined through the context of today, will lead to constructive change in the world and to personal growth in each of our students as they explore the essential question: “What does it mean to be a person of commitment and clarity?” as understood by the great philosophers, leaders, writers, mathematicians, scientists, and artists of the past and the present.
• Focuses on studentsÂ’ development of math and science research techniques, along with critical & analytical thinking skills. Students engage in individual projects, competitions, and trips to colleges and university research seminars.
