Upper School Essentials

Curriculum

With more than 150 courses, students have the flexibility to design a schedule that supports their academic goals and enables them to dive deep into their interests and passions.

Daily Schedule

Our schedule is designed to enhance opportunities and increase student engagement with longer class blocks, fewer transitions, a later start to the academic day, and increased flex time.

College Counseling

Our program empowers students to search for, identify, and enroll in colleges that are strong fits based on their goals and passions.

Global Experiences

The Wellington International Student Experience (WISE) program is included in tuition, making international travel a reality for every Wellington student.
