The 1250 member K-12 student body is randomly selected to reflect the demographics of the student population of the state of Florida both ethnically and socio-economically. We strive to provide a high quality, well-rounded educational experience for every student on our campus. Our students are exposed to a wide variety of academic classes and extracurricular activities. Our vision for our students is that they become creative, dedicated, and resilient learners who embrace the power of diverse ideas, talents, and cultures to improve our world.
