Students have the option of being boarding or day students. Boarding is encouraged, as the dormitory experience is an important part of a student's overall learning and enjoyment. Boarding students also have the benefit of participating in a mandatory evening study hall. Subjects offered include math, English, science, oceanography, creative writing, computers, history, electives, foreign languages, and English as a second language. Designated courses may be taken for a semester of high school credit.
