Academics
Cannon School is an accredited, coeducational, independent JrK - Grade 12 college preparatory school
serving more than 1,000 students across our Lower, Middle, and Upper Schools.
LOWER SCHOOL
The Lower School experience is pivotal in the educational journey of our students. From junior kindergarten through grade four, we are committed to knowing, understanding, and celebrating every child in a learning environment that is hands-on, engaging, and full of energy. Because their voices are valued, our students embrace their curiosity, creativity, and confidence as learners.
MIDDLE SCHOOL
The Middle School establishes a sense of family and fun during the pre-adolescent years; a time of intellectual, social, and emotional change for this dynamic age group.We encourage our students—from fifth graders who are being introduced to the basics of Middle School to eighth graders who are anticipating the rigors of Upper School—to take risks and learn who they are.
UPPER SCHOOL
The Upper School experience challenges our ninth-through twelfth-grade students to discover their own paths to successful lives while preparing them for college. We help students balance rigorous programs of study with extracurricular activities so they develop their interests, passions, and talents in transformational ways. Our graduates are independent learners and impact-makers who understand how they will make a difference in an increasingly diverse world.
