Private Education with Boarding in Roanoke
The two schools with which we currently partner, North Cross and Roanoke Catholic, offer students in 9th-12th grades the unique opportunity to attend an exceptional private college-preparatory school while living in a vibrant, small city community.
North Cross School
North Cross School is a non-sectarian, Kindergarten through 12th grade school located just outside downtown Roanoke, whose mission is to provide its students with a rigorous academic curriculum, competitive with the best college-preparatory schools in the Commonwealth of Virginia. While North Cross explicitly recognizes the importance of intellectual development and academic achievement, the School also strives to promote personal integrity, empathy, and responsibility to self and community. Through this, North Cross graduates will act as leaders in the local and global communities, and become persons of intellectual and moral courage, and scholars in the service of others. With a faculty greatly comprised of teachers with advanced degrees in all divisions, the North Cross curricula allow for challenging, yet individualized approaches to learning.

Roanoke Catholic School
Located within walking distance to the dormitory, Roanoke Catholic School offers a college-preparatory curriculum from preschool through 12th grade. Roanoke Catholic welcomes families of all faiths and backgrounds who appreciate the school’s well-rounded, rigorous, and moral educational experience. (More than 20% of students are not Catholic.)
Roanoke Catholic nurtures artistic expression through Theater, Dance, Choir, Band, Visual Arts, and Engineering/3D Printing classes. Each year Roanoke Catholic graduates earn a 100% college acceptance rate and nearly $4 million in scholarships. With Advanced Placement and dual-enrollment classes, students can graduate with as many as 24 college credits, giving families even more value for their tuition dollars. The fundamental task of Roanoke Catholic School is the education of the whole person, blending learning with faith and faith with daily life.
