The Ninth Grade program continues the advanced academic program of the Middle and Upper Schools, thereby giving students high school level courses within the enriched, supportive environment of TPS.  As leaders of our school, ninth grade students develop the knowledge and skills that launch them confidently into their secondary school and college careers. 

Special field trips during the year, leadership of school organizations and teams, leading roles in dramatic and musical presentations, and teachers who are leaders in their curricular areas all help to make this a very special year.

A unique advantage of this program is that it offers ninth grade students the opportunity to be the oldest and most mature students in the school, instead of competing with, and perhaps emulating, older students.
