Why the Highlands fits Virginia Episcopal School
VES students come from across Virginia and beyond. The Highlands fits naturally into the school's existing focus on character formation and gives students objective tools as they consider college direction.
How we engage
Most Virginia Episcopal School families begin with an individual Highlands Ability Battery — a 3.5-hour online assessment plus a two-hour debrief — for one student. Some families come back for a second child two years later. Schools sometimes engage us at the institutional level for cohort work.
- Individual Highlands work for upper-school students
- Senior-class cohort engagements
