ACADEMIC SCHEDULING 

We believe that learning to adapt, persevere, and engage fully with new opportunities is an essential part of student development. Our team has carefully built schedules in an attempt to support each student’s unique academic journey, and we’re here to help them grow through the challenges and successes ahead. As part of our commitment to a growth mindset, we will not be making changes to student schedule(s) this year. If there are errors or omissions in student schedules, please contact Mrs. Suzanne Heng (Academic Dean) for Middle School schedule inquiries and Ms. Brooke Scott (Secondary Principal) for all high school schedule inquiries.
