About

At Culver Academies, Leaders are always In the Making.

In the figuring out and falling down and overcoming, we find resilience. In finding new ways to tackle the world's problems, we unlock truth. In rallying around others, we stand for something bigger than ourselves. And in building up all the pieces of who we are, we make our whole selves even better. In the process of making hundreds of decisions every day, and choosing to be honorable, good people, we become great leaders.

As a boarding school, Culver offers an opportunity unlike that of typical secondary schools. Here, students learn to develop leadership by meeting challenges head on and placing others before themselves. Values-based and mission-driven, we honor Henry Harrison Culver’s vision with every person who passes through our halls, in a school rich in tradition and committed to excellence in all we do. Culver students take learning seriously, but they also enjoy a high degree of freedom and fun. They embrace responsibility, service, and teamwork as essential to becoming leaders of character.
