Individualized learning is at the core of our academic philosophy. Students at all grade levels who require additional challenge and stimulation are afforded enriching opportunities. Students in grades 4-5 are placed in either standard or accelerated math and reading. In the Middle School students are divided into an accelerated and regular math sequence. Cape Henry admits a diverse student body whose commonality is the desire and the cognitive ability to do college preparatory work.
AES enables students with learning differences to succeed in our challenging curriculum.
The support system, which is available to a limited number of enrolled students, is integrated into the school day. Our emphasis is on the entire family participating in prevention and education efforts. A Health Forum is conducted every year in the Upper School to help our students make good decisions concerning their health and future. Our Mission Statement includes a commitment to volunteer and community service. Middle and Upper School students perform service at agencies and locations throughout Hampton Roads.
