At CA, we believe that small classes, high academic standards, and an active involvement in one’s surrounding community provide the cornerstone to a student’s pre-collegiate education. CA’s program combines a strong college preparatory program with a unique liberal arts and sciences curriculum full of stimulating electives and Advanced Placement (AP) courses to prepare students for university. This demanding curriculum is a key reason why every year CA sends 100% of its graduates to the nation’s best colleges and universities.

A rigorous academic curriculum is enriched by programs outside the classroom. Athletics help students build stamina, skill, and confidence while learning teamwork and sportsmanship. Experiential education offers students greater insight into themselves and the world. Group community service projects help students define and develop a sense of selflessness, perspective, and social responsibility. Student clubs, productions, art shows, and recitals all provide creative outlets that help our students cultivate their own sense of artistic expression.

Through structured programs and individual integrity, CA seniors serve as positive role models and mentors to younger students. Upper School students form relationships with teachers that foster intellectual and moral development. As a result of their experiences at CA, seniors graduate as well-rounded individuals with defined values and purpose.
