What if you could give your child a life-changing experience?

What if you could provide a 24/7 education that would challenge your child to become an independent thinker, inspired learner, responsible citizen, compassionate leader, and confident healer? The boarding experience at the Principia School provides opportunities for growth beyond any classroom environment. The lessons learned prepare boarders for far more than academic success.

Each dorm is a home—a safe and secure place where your child will be cherished, loved, and valued. It’s a place where students discover their greatness, find a sense of belonging, and embrace the joy of doing their best. They’ll find high standards and expectations as well. Being in a family with 70-80 brothers or sisters demands that every member share responsibility for creating and maintaining a harmonious home. Daily opportunities to demonstrate respect, self-discipline, independence, friendship, and patience give added meaning to brotherhood, sisterhood, and character. They also provide “light bulb” moments too numerous to count. 

Essential to all this is Christian Science, which anchors everything at Principia. Living in a community of Christian Scientists offers new opportunities for students to turn to God for guidance as they learn to live independently. At all times, they’re supported, loved, and nurtured by house parents who are passionate about cultivating each child’s excellence.
