Wentworth believes in educating the mind, body and spirit – in developing the whole student. The campus’ small town setting helps to foster an environment free from the typical distractions confronting young people today. A highly structured daily schedule reinforces the priority of academics and self-development and, in fact, ultimately provides the student greater freedom to excel academically and otherwise.

In addition to the college preparatory curriculum, Wentworth provides an array of sports, extra-curricular and developmental activities and programs designed to broaden our students’ educational experience and provide them the foundations for college success. Wentworth is among only a few secondary schools in the Midwest to make community service a graduation requirement.

All boarding students are required to take part in some form of athletics or physical education and all participate in either Junior or Senior ROTC. Students not participating in varsity sports enjoy numerous intramural programs or activities such as SCUBA, paintball, martial arts, journalism and arts & crafts. Frequent off-campus trips are planned cultural, historic, sports and entertainment attractions contribute to the student’s overall development.

Cadets are encouraged to attend the religious service of their choice at local parishes and congregations. The school has an Honor Code which is administered by the Corps of Cadets with faculty oversight. Values such as integrity, personal accountability, teamwork and hard work are taught and reinforced through both formal instruction and role modeling.
