 ACADEMICS
INSPIRING LIFELONG LEARNERS
A Priory education is about more than just college preparation. It’s
also about developing habits of mind, broadening one’s exposure, and discerning lifelong personal passions. Classes meet three times a week for 60-90 minutes so that students can engage deeply in conversations, group work, and labs.
Teachers focus on skills that we call our Learning Competencies — Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Communication, Creativity, and Resilience — so that students are prepared to navigate and participate in an ever-changing world as lifelong learners and stewards. Whether it’s college-level math like Differential Equations, an English elective like Discourse of Dining: Food and Literature, or a five-person Ecological Design & Sustainability course, our students feel engaged, inspired, and well prepared for their next challenges.
