Academics

Students are required to take one Science and Humanities class each as part of the morning routine. Some students also hire foreign language and math teachers to prevent their skills from slipping during the semester away. Physical Education is also a required course. In PE, students' choices include hiking, biking, gardening, running, and soccer. The school is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and AdvancEd.[1]
