From Our Students
Clapham School offers a unique experience where students and teachers learn side by side through engaging discussions, dissecting great books, and exploring thought-provoking textbooks. The wide range of subject matter allows my fellow classmates and me to discover truth about God, humanity, and the universe we live in.
ANDREW 
Clapham throughout the years has always been a very supportive learning environment, as everything is done in a close-knit community. The teachers are always ready to help if I do not understand, the Shakespeare play is a lesson in cooperation, and volleyball is a small team that runs on support. It is its supportive nature that makes Clapham unique—everyone is known.
Ella 
“My favorite part about going to middle school at Clapham is Shakespeare. I really enjoy acting out a Shakespeare play and can’t wait for next year!"
ANGELINA 
The volleyball team is great. You build teamwork with each other over the year and at the end of the year you’re great friends with everyone; the coach is awesome too.

My time at Clapham has prepared me incredibly well to think critically...
The discussion-based learning at Clapham tackles complex issues that authors have pondered for millennia and forces students to think critically in the pursuit of truth. I believe my time at Clapham has prepared me incredibly well to think critically but it has also taught me to work with other students in our search for truth.Â

Julie LeMahieu
It is a joy to teach music at Clapham School! The Clapham culture of setting high academic expectations, building strong habits of learning, and of tending students’ hearts has fostered a wonderful atmosphere for students to grow as musicians and as people. What a privilege for me to help train students to use their voices to glorify the Lord in song!
