Minnehaha Academy - High School

"I have enjoyed working at Minnehaha for the past 7 years. The community found here is second to none. We care deeply about one another and all of our students and make sure that everyone has the support that they need. I'm always amazed at all that we have to offer for such a small school. Students here experience a wide variety of options in courses, athletics and fine arts and all of our programs pursue high standards of excellence."

"A member of the Class of 2006, I still think back on the tremendous influence of Minnehaha on my life. Though MA is an academically rigorous college prep school, teachers see students beyond their academic ability. They are equally devoted to helping students grow as whole people as they model critical thinking, compassion and humility. 15 years after graduating, many of my former teachers are still working at Minnehaha. In a field with so much burnout, it's worth noting that teachers at MA stay for the long haul. This speaks to their passion, their devotion to students and to the MA community at-large. When I went to college, I was able to test out of a handful or required college courses due to the various AP options available to me at MA. I've always been thankful for that. Academics aside, the best part about Minnehaha is that it is a community that helped bring my faith to life. It is a place that fosters a love of asking questions rather than resorting to easy answers."

"Originally I had a fabulous experience, the 4th grade teacher was so kind! The speeches that the parent/teachers gave at the open house were very touching. They announced time and time again that all families where welcome from all income brackets, because they has scholarships available. After getting about more than half way through the admissions process, I was notified email stating that the school is recommending I do NOT continue with the admission process because my family is of income bracket."

"I am an alum, current faculty, and parent at Minnehaha Academy. Our two kids attend the Lower School, beginning several years ago in PreK, and are flourishing - as parents, we could not be more thrilled with their education and love for the school! Minnehaha Academy is a fantastic school on all levels. Minnehaha teaches to the whole child (academics, art, athletics, spiritual, and more) - this is of utmost important to the awesome faculty and staff at this PreK-12 school. Students are supported to grow and mature to their full potential while recognizing their gifts and talents that they can use in service to God and to others. We would not hesitate to recommend others to attend Minnehaha Academy and be part of the beautiful community and family feel this school provides."

"Our family is grateful to be part of the MA community. Not only do I have a dream job on faculty, but our child is challenged and nurtured daily at the lower school. It's a wonderful place for all of us to grow as whole people and experience the love of God daily."
