Churchill is a respectful academic community where teachers, students, and parents and colleagues work together. The school provides a wonderful place where youth and experience come together for the singular purpose of learning about life and living. In a beautiful and safe campus setting, Churchill High School offers an education which is the foundation upon which students may build their dreams. Churchill has developed a rigorous and challenging course of study based on the belief that intellectual and personal growth go hand in hand, that good schooling sows the seeds of later wisdom and that no life is complete until it is made useful to others. "Lancer Pride" is the term that the Churchill community uses to describe this spirit of the school. Churchill's rich and varied curriculum, traditional in structure, offers a sound foundation, imparts the skills needed to acquire knowledge and express it, and fosters a spirit of critical inquiry. At Churchill, both inside and outside the classrooms, the school promotes productive work habits, a discerning respect for the ideas of others, and the mastery of knowledge. In addition to its outstanding academic program, Churchill offers an excellent competitive athletic program and a wide range of activities and performance opportunities for students. Churchill is a leader in integrating technology into the classroom and has first rate computer facilities available for students. Churchill also hosts a branch of the International High School, as well as the Rachel Carson Center for Natural Resources, an optional program that integrates science, social studies, and language arts using the study of watersheds as a unifying theme. Students in this two-year program will work towards a Certificate of Advanced Mastery in Natural Resource Systems. A priority at Churchill is to provide students with ample opportunities to belong. Everyone is encouraged to participate in student assemblies, career opportunities, athletics, student leadership, arts, music and theater, student publications and social events.
