High Point Academy is an independent school in Pasadena, California for grades K-8. Our teachers recognize, embrace, and develop each childโ€™s true potential.

Our academic rigor, involved community, supportive staff, and exemplary Specialists and athletic programs have made us a leader among private schools for over 60 years. High Point Academyโ€™s mission is to awaken the joy of lifelong learning in each kindergarten-8th grade student. With small class sizes, teachers are able to provide a stimulating and innovative educational experience in the most nurturing and caring environment possible. Through a challenging yet balanced curriculum, each child is motivated to flourish academically, emotionally, morally, physically, and socially. Service learning, STEAM, technology, athletics, arts, theater arts and music, world languages in Spanish and French, library, and green sustainable living are embedded in the enriched curriculum. We offer physical education five days a week, an iMac technology center, a 1:1 laptop program in 4th-8th grades and a 2:1 iPad program in kindergarten-3rd grade, strong parent partnerships, a beautiful and impeccably maintained campus, and a dedicated faculty and staff.

Last week, our 8th graders headed to Ojai for four unforgettable days with the Fulcrum program! From the high ropes course to square dancing, team-building challenges to plenty of free time, our Eagles strengthened existing relationships, made new friends, pushed beyond their comfort zones, and showcased their leadership skills.

They took on challenges, supported one another, and discovered just how much they can accomplish together. Four days, countless challenges, and a whole lot of growth - our Eagles came home stronger, braver, and more connected than ever! ๐Ÿฆ…

Our 7th grade students sailed off to CIMI last week for an action-packed adventure! From kayaking across the ocean and mastering some seriously impressive kayak challenges to dissecting squid like real marine biologists, Day 1 was just the beginning. ๐Ÿฆ‘

Day 2 brought snorkeling among hundreds of fish, coral reefs, and even a few eels, plus a giant free-fall swing with incredible ocean views. Then came the ultimate test of bravery: a night snorkel in the dark, where students spotted lobsters, eels, and maybe even a shark! ๐Ÿฆˆ

They wrapped up their final morning with a sunrise hike, taking in 360ยฐ views of the ocean before one last round of ocean adventures, tide pools, and plankton exploration under microscopes. ๐Ÿ”ฌ๐ŸŒ…

Three days of new experiences, friendships, and plenty of memories to take home!
