Curriculum

The schools curriculum consists primarily of the standard courses taught at college preparatory schools across the world. All students are required to take classes in the core areas of English, Basic Sciences, Mathematics, a Foreign Language, and Social Sciences.

Spiritual aspects

Weekly, the entire student body gathers together in their gymnasium for an hour-long chapel service. Outside the classrooms there is year-round spiritually oriented programming that relies on student involvement.
