Equipping Students to thrive in College and Life
Ben Lippen is designed for families who value challenging academics and intentional college prep, but also want the Biblical values they’ve instilled at home to be reinforced at school. We know that a teen’s faith is often challenged during the high school years, which is why Ben Lippen provides spiritual mentorship to help students develop a Biblical worldview and strengthen their relationships with Christ. This equips them to navigate a complex and changing world in college and beyond.
Preparing for the next step
A Ben Lippen education prepares students for life and provides opportunities to develop their gifts to make a positive change in the world for Christ.
- Max Russell, High School Principal
Our high school principal, Mr. Russell uses his passion to help students identify the gifts the Lord has given them and encourages them to use their time at Ben Lippen to prepare for the next step in God's plan. To carry this out, he seeks to create a unique high school experience for each student who goes through Ben Lippen School.
We provide a variety of academic course offerings, taught from a Biblical worldview, that assist in meeting graduation requirements as well as courses that will help students prepare for life. Mr. Russell desires that through a Ben Lippen education, students can understand their gifts and use them to make a positive change in the world for Christ.
Within a culturally diverse learning community, Ben Lippen High School prepares young adults to be stewards of the gifts God has given them in preparation for the calling of God in their lives by training them as independent Christian scholars who seek God, love all people, demonstrate a zeal for learning, think analytically, and communicate effectively.
A Personalized Experience
Families love Ben Lippen School because we offer:
- Small class sizes — We work with our teachers to find the optimal class size for each course, allowing teachers the capacity to provide individualized attention while still creating a meaningful environment for discussion and group work.
- Academic tracks — We offer AP courses, dual-credit (early college) opportunities, a College Prep diploma, and an Honors diploma, so that each student may tailor their education to their future goals.
- Grade-specific counseling — As your teen moves from his or her freshman year to senior year, he or she will be counseled to explore different career fields, identify college goals and options, and create an academic plan with appropriate rigor to meet these goals.
- Electives and clubs — Engineering, robotics, photography, forensics, yearbook, chorus and bluegrass band are just a few of the opportunities our students have to explore new hobbies, interests, and future career fields.=
High School Staff
We have enjoyed Ben Lippen with multiple children over 14 years. The culture here is phenomenal. The students have teachers who desire to be mentors in life, not just teachers of a subject.
