School Notes
Faith and spiritual development are important parts of the
well-rounded education provided at Presentation High School. In
addition to academics and activities, students have opportunities
for prayer, reflection, community worship and service. The school
motto "Not words but deeds" reminds us to transform words into
actions with service to our school, community and world.
Our single-sex environment instills in young women courage,
confidence and a sense of empowerment. Just think - the best
calculus student at Presentation is a young woman. The top debater
and fastest runner are young women. The robotics team, film and
media club, Math and Science Academy, all are driven by talented
young women who see no limits when it comes to education and
personal accomplishment.
Like larger schools, Presentation offers a wide range of
curricular choices, a competitive athletic program, an exciting
array of co-curricular activities and a picturesque campus with
state-of-the-art facilities. Yet Presentation has retained a
small-school feel where teachers, counselors and administrators
know students by name. Our gym can accommodate all four class
levels at once, fostering a sense of community and school pride at
assemblies and liturgies.
Presentation prepares students for college by using a block
schedule that allows for more productivity in the classroom.
Classes are 85 minutes long and include lectures, large- and
small-group activities, technology, board work and visual aids.
Each year 100 percent of our graduates go on to college, where our
students report feeling very prepared for the rigors of higher
education, particularly in the areas of writing and study
skills.
Most adults find traveling more complicated and challenging that it was pre-pandemic. We offer some suggestions for safe teen travel in these uncertain times.
One of the basic differences between private and public schools is the fact that most public school teachers belong to a union. Should teachers be unionized?
