Learners Thinkers Doers
Students in Grades 10 to 12 can travel internationally to countries like Cambodia, South Africa, Morocco, Singapore, and Spain. The Global Studies Program helps students build cultural competency, gain new perspectives, deepen friendships, and discover opportunities to be active citizens of the world.
Parker’s Upper School is a cornucopia of opportunities. Students design their academic journey by choosing from a diverse range of classes—including 60+ AP and Honors courses—and engaging electives like Social Justice, Engineering, and Orchestra. The unique Upper School schedule allows students to participate in a variety of performing and visual arts classes and includes dedicated free blocks for studying and office hours.
Excellence across the board propels Parker students to attend some of the most highly-ranked universities in the world. Our college counseling office offers a wide array of resources to help each student find the college where they’ll thrive.
Building Lifelong Community
At Parker, students are known, valued, and respected. Small class sizes allow our faculty to engage students at a deeper level. Weekly advisory time encourages students to build supportive relationships with adults they trust and their peers. Grade-level deans, advisors, and learning specialists help ensure that all Upper School students receive the support and attention needed to thrive.
