Our future begins with a new vision for Seven Hills: to build a school where every day gives every student a chance to connect with someone or something that inspires them.

A message from Chris Garten, Head of School

I think of education as a journey: one characterized by exploring different paths to find that one pathway to our purpose. It’s our responsibility as educators to help children and teenagers understand who they are, what they love to do—and how they can use what they love to do in their daily lives, and later, in college and their careers.

This has always been the heart and soul of our approach to education at Seven Hills. We strive every day to offer our students the widest possible array of learning experiences—because only through trying and doing can they truly come to understand themselves, their strengths, and what really interests them.

It’s why it’s so important to create spaces where we can host speakers and professionals who can introduce students of all ages to new ideas and new professions—and equally important to create spaces that support co-curriculars like theater, the fine arts, mock trial, debate, and athletics. Each offers a way for students to discover talents and passions that can shape their lives.

Build. Connect. Inspire. is all about the moments that spark learning, growth, and confidence in our children’s lives—and Build. Connect. Inspire. represents our moment as a school community. We’re committed to extending our reach further into experiential learning, the arts, and athletics. We’re committed to creating new learning opportunities. We’re committed to bringing our school community together as never before. And the new facilities we will create through Build. Connect. Inspire. will make it all possible.

Every Seven Hills student on both campuses will benefit today, and every Seven Hills family long into the future will remember our vision.
