- New clubs and initiatives can be created based on student interest
The Student Life Advantage
Parents often ask what makes Rolling Hills Prep's approach to student life different from other schools. We believe our advantage lies in our personalized approach—we understand that student engagement isn't one-size-fits-all. Our program is designed to meet students where they are while challenging them to grow.
From a sixth grader joining their first club to a senior leading a community-wide service initiative, every student receives the appropriate blend of encouragement, opportunity, and guidance to thrive.
