SOAR's theme for the 2026-2027 school year is SOAR to New Heights. We want our students to know:

🟠They can do hard things
🟡They can support and encourage each other when the climb gets challenging
🟣The adventure to the top is just as rewarding as the views when you get there.
🟢They are full of potential.

This year, we hope they SOAR to New Heights.

Wishing them all the best year!

Our Jr. High and High Schoolers have an awesome line up of classes for the 2026-2027 school year!

We’re building, researching, debating, creating, and coding! Check out the classes our teens get to dive into this year:

JR. HIGH
🎨 Chroma Lab (Art): Where science meets creativity in a exploration of color and design in usable products.

🤖 VEX Robotics (Tech): Building, programming, and engineering robots to compete in challenges.

✈️ Flight Engineering (STEM): Taking learning to new heights as we explore the physics and design of flight.

HIGH SCHOOL
🎭 Wax Museum (History): Bringing history to life (literally!) as students research and portray iconic figures.

🗣️ Debate (Public Speaking): Sharpening critical thinking, logic, and persuasive speaking skills in a fun, collaborative setting.

💻 Python (Tech): An introduction into the language of modern coding and computer science.

At SOAR, we believe these years should be filled with discovery, deep friendships, and high-interest learning that prepares them for the future. 🌟
