Student Life

At Hargrave, the time away from class and outside the camps is also an opportunity for learning. While your son is attending Hargrave, he find himself in situations that will demand personal growth in character, self-discipline and integrity.

Adult Supervision

Hargrave’s military structure is the backbone of the Academy. The military model provides order, stability and purpose for all students. It also provides students a safe, well-disciplined learning environment geared for individual success.

All academic classes, study halls, athletic and adventure activities are supervised by highly qualified teachers, coaches or instructors. Hargrave’s Commandant supervises residential life and adherence to the daily schedule. A student’s personal contact with adult leaders is an important aspect of growth and learning at the Academy.
