ADVANCING EXCELLENCE SINCE 1878
Every student deserves an educational experience that challenges them to not only grow, but to thrive. We warmly welcome you to discover how University Liggett School’s tradition of academic excellence, our inclusive community, and our forward-thinking approach empower students to actualize their potential.
For nearly 150 years, University Liggett School has delivered innovative and highly intentional education that transforms young students into lifelong learners and leaders. From Early Childhood through graduation, our distinct and progressively challenging academic approach develops the critical thinking skills, character, and confidence needed to successfully navigate our rapidly-evolving world.
Our research-backed framework revolutionizes education, placing students at the heart of their journey through purposeful, inquiry-driven experiences that engage, inspire, and foster excellence. The Liggett Approach cultivates curious, confident learners who meaningfully connect knowledge to real-world challenges, and who understand the inherent value of their own learning.
Guided by the Liggett Approach, our Signature Programs elevate learning beyond the traditional classroom. These programs allow students to dive deep into areas of personal interest, participate in hands-on projects, and solve real-world problems. From the foundational years to graduation, these innovative and highly intentional programs prepare students to thrive in college, careers, and life.
At University Liggett School, athletics goes beyond competition—shaping leaders, building character, and fostering community. With state-of-the-art facilities, a legacy of 88 state championships, and coach-mentors who inspire excellence on and off the field, our student-athletes thrive in a culture where determination meets opportunity.
Within our nationally recognized arts program, students drive their creative journeys from Early Childhood through Upper School. Guided by expert faculty-artists in professional-grade facilities, young creators develop the confidence to turn artistic visions into reality.
