See why it's great to be a Knight!

Inspiring learners and leaders

Our classrooms are filled with students who approach their studies with a genuine desire to learn. The universal support and enthusiasm among faculty, staff and parents/guardians creates an environment that encourages academic excellence. We believe high standards for character will lead students to embrace challenges in and out of the classroom and, ultimately, to succeed. Our goal is to foster honor, respect, and compassion in each student and provide them with an exceptional learning environment to prepare them for further education. Our graduates are ready to go into post-secondary education with the confidence to thrive, the tools for life-long learning, and the conviction to make a positive impact.
