a spiritual dimension to high school, we can
proudly say that we educate the whole person.
Our dress code, expectations of behavior and
small size create an exceptional academic environment.
Rice offers a unique Freshman Transition Program,
a Campus Ministry department, Religion classes,
daily prayer, liturgies and prayer services.
There is also a high level of student participation
in community service, athletics, and the arts.

faiths.
