School Notes Overview:

Since 1910, Army and Navy Academy have been providing an exceptional academic education to young men in a structured and disciplined environment. The proud history of fostering excellence shines through as cadets transform into leaders year after year. Small classrooms, personal attention and discipline to one's studies motivate each cadet to reach his potential. The rigorous core curriculum, based on the University of California's entrance requirements, is taught through a carefully developed learning system. Recognizing that each cadet learns differently, on average the student ratio of 1:12 allows for customized strategies and tutoring. Classes and exposure to fine art, drama, and music allows each cadet to explore and express his creative side. The Academy promotes discipline and leadership through character development lessons. This is provided through our Leadership Education Training (LET) classes which includes the US Army's Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) program. These lessons extend outside of our classrooms and into other aspects of young men's lives. A cadet's experience in athletics, clubs, and residential life reinforces teamwork, lasting friendships, and ongoing personal growth. Our mission is to educate and develop young men of good character. ...
