Our Perspective on North Point School

One of the many things that makes North Point School unique is an educational programming that addresses the different learning needs of boys and girls. The School for Boys (K-9) taps into boys' kinesthetic energy, while the School for Girls (K-9) builds confidence and helps girls develop and pursue their passions. The Co-educational High School prepares students for leadership and future challenges. At the core of the North Point School's curriculum are hands-on learning, problem-solving, and outdoor exploration. Technology, athletics, arts, leadership, and community service are integrated into daily learning. The mandatory Financial Education program promotes economic literacy and entrepreneurship for all students, while the Active Living program blends classroom learning with real-world experiences, fostering teamwork, leadership, and character development. North Point helps students reach their full potential, learn in a way that comes to them most naturally, and as a result develop a lifelong love for learning.
