GRADES 9-12

The Upper School years at The Avalon School are demanding: the young men write to express their reasoning while challenging the boundaries of their world with an immersion in Shakespeare and the great novels of western civilization. Calculus and language study are pursued with an eye to college readiness and each student is coached in the planning and perseverance necessary to successfully navigate an increasingly sophisticated course of studies.
