Studere est Excellere (To Strive Is To Excel)

"Studere est Excellere" (To Strive is to Excel), the motto at George S. Henry Academy, reflects the attitude of the students as they work diligently towards academic and personal excellence. Henry serves a diverse school community where students, supported by parents and dedicated teachers, hold high goals and aspirations. Henry students pursue an academic program of studies with the intention of progressing to the world of work, apprenticeship, college, or university. At Henry, we believe that each student's personal, intellectual and social growth develops through a rich and challenging curriculum, including math, science, the arts, technology and the humanities, as well as participation in co-curricular activities.
