Our Program

At Exceed Upper School, our instructional program is based on the belief that all students can meet high expectations when provided the right environment and resources to achieve.

We are committed to helping our students to not only achieve academically, but also gain access to people and experiences vital to their future success. Many of us frame our work in terms of social justice: we prepare our students to be leaders by asking them to lead, right now.

• Our Common Core aligned curricula emphasizes critical thinking and rigor, helping our students develop the skills they need for college-preparatory high schools.
