School Notes Overview: |
The Orme School is dedicated to creating the whole student –mind, body and spirit. A beautiful 300 acre campus nestled in a 26,000 acre working cattle ranch in Northern Arizona, The Orme School has been offering opportunities to students for 80 years. In addition to demanding academics, Orme offers athletics, arts, horsemanship, outdoor leadership and a sense of community that is truly unique among boarding schools. The experiences gained at Orme last an entire lifetime.
In addition to our school year, we offer summer programs, both camp and school, and an ESL Institute for students. We also host international groups seeking outdoor/camping excursions in a Western environment.
As a college preparatory institute, we are very proud that 100% of our students go on to college.
