Upper School

Classes Nine-Twelve

High school, also known as Upper School, prepares students to engage the world for Christ. They read the Great Books of Western civilization and take rigorous courses in science, math, ancient and modern languages, Bible and fine arts. Leadership and service opportunities allow them to live out the values they embrace.

At Clapham, we seek to equip and shepherd students to pursue wisdom in community as followers of Christ. Inspired by the classical tradition, we equip students with the fundamental skills of learning, known as the liberal arts, to develop them into critical and articulate thinkers. We guide students with intentionality, teaching them to love what is true, good, and beautiful, and shape them to be wise and virtuous servants of Jesus Christ.

Relationships

We believe high quality learning occurs when students know each other well.

While many high schools today pride themselves on their large size, we believe the highest quality of learning occurs when students who know each other well  in a small classroom setting. Through semester retreats, service projects, and game nights, edifying friendships develop into a tight knit community of students that pursue wisdom together.
