Middle & Upper School Open House
At Harrisburg Academy, our faculty are dedicated to making each student's experience productive and rewarding. Students approach learning conceptually rather than thematically, allowing them to make connections across all subjects through examination of real-world situations in a local, national, and global context.
Our Middle School Program teaches communication, research and social skills, and critical thinking, all of which we believe are key to future success. As part of our academic program, students learn how to reflect on their own learning and how to become their own advocate throughout the process.
Our Upper School program fosters development of skills that our students will need at the university level and beyond. Throughout their high school years, our students hone their researching and writing skills, improve upon time management skills, and truly discover how they learn best.
Join us on Saturday, March 18 at 10 a.m. on campus to discover the difference an Academy education can make! Registration is required and can be completed here. -
