Academics
The rigorous educational program at MELHS is designed to challenge students in an environment that helps each child grow in knowledge and succeed in life. With 96% of graduates enrolling in college, our curriculum prepares students for whatever career they choose, while remaining grounded in Christian values.
Our eight-period school day (45 minute periods) delivers academic success in a traditional setting. An honors program and dual credit opportunities push the highest achieving students, while personal attention helps each individual succeed. Most students graduate having already earned a significant number of college credits.
Boasting ACT scores that rise above area high schools and the state and national averages, our graduates have continued their education at many prestigious colleges and universities. Scholarships abound for our graduates as they prepare for college.
