It’s a Balance:
Academic Challenge and Authentic Support
As a college preparatory school, LuHi is dedicated to preparing students for every stage ahead. We balance rigorous academics with genuine support, empowering students to grow in confidence and independence through middle and high school.
At LuHi, high school is about discovery, growth, and preparation for what’s next. Through a rigorous curriculum and personalized support, students develop the skills, confidence, and independence needed for college and beyond. Below, you’ll find an overview of our academic offerings and opportunities.
Academic Tracks
Students have course options that include college prep, honors, 19 advanced placement (AP) with dual-credit opportunities through our partnership with Molloy University. From the performing and visual arts to robotics and chemistry, LuHi students can dive into interests and discover new passions.
Electives Across Disciplines
High school students can explore just about any subject area that interests them. Some popular options include Multimedia Journalism, Introduction to Psychology, Introduction to Law, Sports Management, and Sports Medicine. Our annual Beyond Boundaries experience is a chance for students to experience mission-aligned opportunities in body, mind, and spirit.
Student Clubs and Organizations
High school students take on responsibility through leadership positions or other roles in student clubs and organizations. Some of our more popular options include Art Club, Robotics, Peace Group (Christian service), Pep Band, Student Government, and Yearbook. Students can take on leadership positions or try out other roles and responsibilities.
Championship-Winning Athletics
With 25 sports teams, including our nationally ranked boys and girls basketball teams, high school students can participate at a junior varsity or varsity level. Each year, several LuHi student-athletes earn college scholarships in their sport.
Service Opportunities
Participation in community service is woven into the fabric of the LuHi experience. From building houses with our local Habitat for Humanity to domestic and international mission trips, and the importance of service in Beyond Boundaries, service work helps high school students practice empathy and compassion, and helps them better understand the importance of community engagement.
Educating the Whole Child for a Lifetime of Learning

As a parent of two daughters who attended LuHi and went on to become highly successful women, I can say it is so much more than just a school. In addition to its standard of academic excellence, LuHi provides an environment where each student is celebrated for the exceptional person they are. At LuHi, inclusiveness, respect, diversity, and caring for your neighbor are as integral to the curriculum as academic achievement. A LuHi education reaches the heart, mind, soul, and body, and for our family, that education is priceless.”
PARENT OF 2 ALUMNI
Ensuring students feel supported and prepared.
High school can be a stressful season as teens begin to understand the long-term impact their actions will have on future goals. We guide our students through this time by:
Helping them see the bigger picture.
Students know their value is in their identity as a child of God and not in the way the world defines them. Through an intentional curriculum and one-on-one counseling, students are able to identify not only potential college choices, but also what they’ll need to accomplish during their four years of high school to get into the school(s) of their choice.
Encouraging authentic relationships.
Small class sizes mean teachers really get to know their students. Counselors work with the same students year after year, helping establish understanding and trust. Mentorship programs, such as Helping and Reaching Teens (HART), allow for peer to peer relationship building.
Fostering family support.
We know how important the family dynamic is in a student’s decision making. We provide regular communication between school and home, and bring parents and guardians to campus for educational sessions to ensure students (and families) get the most out of their high school experience.
Building trusted connections.
Each LuHi student is part of a small group Advisory that meets for a short time each day to build community, review announcements, engage in discussion about topics pertinent to the grade level, and more. These small groups also sit together weekly in Chapel. Advisors are teachers and administrators who become trusted adults in each child’s life, and have an opportunity to engage outside of the traditional classroom experience.
