Accredited by the NY State Department of Education (Board of Regents) and the Ministry of Education of Greece. The high school provides a college preparatory education to its students while also promoting Christian values of service and charity to the community. The average class size is approximately 15-20 students allowing for individualized and personalized attention by the faculty. In addition, tuition is considered one of the most affordable in the tri-state area and qualifying students may receive merit and athletic scholarships.
