How can I effectively manage my time to balance school, activities, and personal responsibilities?
Boys use an Academic Planner to track assignments, schedule meetings with teachers, and manage extracurriculars. With support from faculty and parents, they build routines that boost organization, balance, and a growing sense of personal responsibility.
How does being organized impact my learning, stress levels, and success?
In the Upper School, boys are given structured freedom—such as during Commons—to manage their time and responsibilities. With guidance from faculty, they learn to prioritize, prepare, and take ownership of their work and schedules, helping build confidence and grow their independence.
How can attending teachers’ office hours support my academic success and independence as a learner?
During daily 30-minute Commons periods, boys are encouraged to meet with teachers for extra help, to ask questions, and to extend their learning. These one-on-one conversations build confidence, reinforce understanding, and foster habits of both initiative and self-advocacy.
