T he Dunham School has proudly served the Baton Rouge community for more than 40 years. Founded in 1981 with a mission to educate minds and hearts for Christ through a college preparatory program grounded in biblical truth, Dunham is now recognized not only as a leader in Christian education, but also as one of the most innovative and technologically advanced schools in the country. The school prides itself on meeting the needs of the individual student while delivering a highquality academic program combined with competitive athletics and inspiring fine arts offerings. Thanks to a longtime partnership with Apple, Inc., students have access to the latest technology as well as opportunities to engage in design thinking, coding, and engineering through the school’s robust STEM curriculum. The Harkness Method, a unique discussion-based pedagogy, allows future leaders to find their voices, respectfully share opinions, and become effective communicators.
Extracurricular and enrichment activities help students find shared interests, express their school pride, and grow together in faith while a focus on students’ social and emotional needs creates a balanced and healthy student experience. Counseling, advisory, and wellness programs as well as numerous opportunities for fun, fellowship, and collaboration contribute to a vibrant environment where students form lasting relationships with teachers and peers. While the immediate impact of a Dunham education is experienced daily by the school’s current families, perhaps the greater impact can be seen in lives of more than 2,000 alumni who lead and serve in Baton Rouge and many other communities across the country and abroad. Families of prospective two-year-old through high school students are encouraged to visit the school’s website at dunhamschool.org or contact the admissions office at (225) 767-7097 ext. 324 to schedule a campus tour.
