day school for girls in grades 5-12 located in beautiful Central

Lemuel Grier, the first in our founding family, conveyed this
sentiment best: "Our aim is not to stuff the mind with undigested
knowledge from the Text Book, but to train its powers, so that the
student may be able to think for herself." Today, the tradition to
develop students` critical thinking abilities-as well as the other
21st century skills-inspires both our pedagogy and curriculum,
which offers classes ranging from college preparatory to Advanced
Placement (AP) and in-depth scholarship through electives and
advanced offerings.
The standards of faculty and instructors are high, as are the
levels of concern and support provided to ensure that students
experience success.
The concept of outdoor education dates back to the early 20th century as educators sought ways to engage students beyond traditional methods. Early efforts initially focused on direct, experiential learning in nature, but later evolved to incorporate academics, collaborative skills, and a focus on environmental responsibility. Outdoor education today equips students with critical life skills, preparing them for the world beyond the classroom.
We compare and contrast the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme and Advanced Placement. We also explore their distinct educational philosophies, curriculum structures, assessment methods, and global recognition to help students and parents make informed decisions about which rigorous academic program best suits their educational goals and learning preferences.
