School Notes:

    • The size of our student body allows for diversity without sacrificing a concerned and caring atmosphere. Every child is know by "name and by need."
    • All of our students have opportunities for success in small classes, where they are actively involved and where there is a meaningful student-faculty rapport. Parents, community, staff, and students work collaboratively to meet high expectations in a curriculum which stimulates ethical, physical, creative, and social development and opportunity to begin lifelong learning.
    • The campus exudes a sense of history. Located in historic Red Springs on the campus which was originally Flora Macdonald College, its extensive gardens and grounds surround a building on the National Historic Registry. The past inspires the future, defined by students, ages four to seventeen, who come here looking for a history of their own.

School Reviews:

  • Recommended February 28,2012 - Academic programs are better than they have been with continuous growth for the future. Music and art departments are being worked on to be up to standard by next school year, athletics is very strong and we have many club activities that are moving strongly in the 2011-2012 year. Located in an historic building in Red Springs the school offers much more for students than what is available locally. Parents are encouraged to be active participants to better make a well rounded student. Your child will be in a SAFE environment.*-Posted by Parent *
