High School

for 9th-12th Grades

​

Since 2001, we've been teaching Manners and Etiquette, Professional, Social and Soft Skills, with a fresh, fun, exciting, entertaining and modern approach.  Preparing Students for the Professional and Social Seas of life, we include games and dancing in our curriculum to aid in the positive impact of teaching these important life skills.

 

Bringing all of the skills together learned in previous levels, we will introduce Business Etiquette and Professionalism to prepare students for college, employment and our global society.  New students are welcome to join us as we always ‘review’ all skills during our classes and can easily get new students caught up and participating during their first class. (Previous participation not required.)

Passport Program

This program runs in a mostly condensed schedule during January and February with a few special bonus events in the Fall. Learn more about the outings and events by visiting the detailed schedule.

Interview Intensive

The Interview Intensive is a fabulous program that helps to prepare 10-12th grade students for the stressful interview process that is fast approaching.  Whether it be for a scholarship, college, or a job; we help to prepare the students so that when they’re placed in a high-stakes interview, they will have real-life experience to draw from, feeling more confident during the process.

​

The program consists of two in-person class sessions followed by a one-time session of mock interviews with adults from the local business community.
