International & ESL
Nearly 20% of our Upper School students come from abroad; that's more than 16% of our entire student body. International students who receive ESL support are gradually integrated into more courses with American students each year. Physical Education, arts courses, sports teams, class trips, the Environment Program, and the Outdoor Program offer additional chances for interaction.
