School introduction

Located in Henderson in the Las Vegas metropolitan area, the school emphasizes small classes and close student–teacher interaction, with teaching that considers different learning abilities.

Short-term day attendance is primarily for Grades 8–11. Families can plan a period of local living alongside school, with housing, daily transport and out-of-school care arranged separately.

Curriculum

The regular high-school programme is college preparatory, with English, mathematics, history, science and foreign languages. Elective examples include speech and debate, drama and stage production; participation depends on grade and timetable.

Students do not normally attend on Mondays, so two or six weeks refers to calendar duration. Families should consider holidays, actual classroom days and English readiness when choosing a length of stay.

• There are normally no Monday classes, and holidays may further reduce classroom days.
• Lower grades are considered only when local staff can support visiting students; staffing and responsibilities must be arranged in advance.
• Short-stay subjects depend on class places and the timetable.

School features

• Small-class experience for Grades 8–11
