Our average class size is 15, and all students are known by name. The Class of 2022 (70 students) received $11,306,689 in scholarships, with 33 Zell Miller scholars and 31 HOPE scholars. We have received the Forsyth County News "Best Private School" award for eight years and have been a Cardinal Newman Society School of Excellence since 2007.
