International and ESL Students

2024-25 APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN!

The opportunity for a private school education in the Midwest region of the United States is something we value and are proud to offer to international and English as a Second Language (ESL) students. Our Middle and High School partners with Christian families to provide an individualized, interactive, Christ-centered educational experience. Our program is fully accredited and exceeds state requirements. Students entering grades 7-12 are welcome to apply for our ESL program. 

We are proud of the atmosphere and community these students are welcomed into, including local churches we connect with to help students develop their faith outside of school. Engaging in full immersion classrooms, ESL students receive the needed support from dedicated staff through consistent communication with their core class instructors. Tuition includes books & supplies, lunch, and extracurricular fees.  

Ongoing guidance is available through: 

  • College counseling  
  • ESL support 
  • Athletics, arts, leadership, and extracurricular programs  

We look forward to partnering with you for a Christ-centered education.
