Be a part of our beloved community. 

Community life at Branson is student centered and student driven. Our students, faculty, and staff – as well as parents, families, and alumni –  bring to our school a wealth and diversity of life experiences. Together, we cultivate a nurturing, vibrant learning community. 

We strive to give our students a deep and confident sense of belonging, as we help each student cultivate their unique talents and reach their full potential. In turn, Branson students become leaders who enrich our entire community and the world with their ideas and perspective.

At Branson, we encourage you to show up as your authentic self. When you’re comfortable in your own skin, you can be empowered to step outside of your comfort zone and grow. It takes courage to lean into actions that teach you about yourself. 

We are here to help you develop the confidence, will power, and moral compass to be brave. Because when you are brave, anything is possible.

When students and adults acknowledge their capacity to impact each other on a daily basis; when we honor the needs and wants of others as deliberately as we do for ourselves; and when we come together to build meaningful relationships through shared values, we become a whole that is far greater than the sum of its parts - we become a true and real community.
