Academic Excellence

Up to 52 hours a week of rigorous instruction, programming and support prepare Nativity students to excel and thrive at the area’s best high schools, colleges and universities.

Academics

Rigorous coursework in math, science, reading and language arts, and writing are taught by an expert team of Lead Teachers and Teaching Fellows who help prepare our students to persist and excel at the area’s top independent high schools.

Extended Day Model

The Nativity Prep extended day model gives our boys an extensive support structure that enables them to grow and thrive. With afternoon activities part of every school day, and evening study available three nights a week, students have access to the resources and supportive environment that can help them excel. It also enables a “community for others” to work side-by-side with faculty at the school in meaningful and impactful ways.

Learn about the volunteer opportunities that make the extended day model possible.
"It’s really satisfying to me to see the boys respond to the high school application question, ‘What do you like about your school’, with such effusive praise of Nativity. They all mention the supportive faculty and nurturing environment, as well as the ‘brothers’ they gain for life and their shared sense of mission to become ‘men for others’." Tim Carey, former Noble & Greenough Dean of Students and Nativity Prep Graduate Support volunteer
"Our friends got us interested in Nativity’s model, but it was visiting and seeing the amount of time and effort the boys put into their education and what’s expected of them that inspired us to get involved." Peter and Meredith Murphy, Student Sponsors
