The curriculum, which exceeds NC Core Standards, is planned to aid in the growth and development of the whole person - spiritually, intellectually, culturally, emotionally, physically, and socially. The administration, faculty, parents, and students unite in providing experiences and in setting examples to prepare students to assume productive roles as members of a rapidly changing and increasingly complex society.
Our broad base of courses encourage the importance of learning across the classical subject areas: Religion, Language Arts, Literature, Math (up through Geometry), Social Studies, Science, and Spanish.
With the study and time management skills and exposure to rigorous academics, OLG graduates have the tools to succeed wherever they choose to attend high school.
The OLG community believes in educating the whole child: mind, body, and spirit.
