We're glad you are considering Branson as a potential home.
For over 100 years, Branson has been a tight-knit community committed to a big mission: developing students who make a positive impact in the world by leading lives of integrity, purpose, learning, and joy. Branson is a school with a reputation for excellence and the highest caliber teachers, but we’re also a community dedicated to fueling the engine of teaching and learning together.
We know finding the right high school is important – now is the time to reflect on what matters to you and what kind of learning community you want to be a part of.

2022-23 Admissions Season Updates
We want to acknowledge that COVID-19 has caused innumerable challenges for many families over the last couple of years. Due to the circumstances, Branson redesigned its admissions season and application process. Although it looks different than in past years, Branson is committed to making sure it remains student-centered throughout the season. There are many opportunities for your family to get to know our community, programs, and philosophy – everything that makes Branson special!
One change we want to bring to your attention now relates to standardized testing. Once again, Branson will not require or accept standardized test scores as part of the application process for the 2022-2023 admissions season. We maintain a holistic approach when evaluating each applicant, and testing is merely one component of this complex process.
Please feel free to contact us at admission@branson.org with any questions regarding this year's Admissions process.

I love the people at Branson. I love the faculty and staff. I love the campus. I love the food. I love the environment and friendships I have made. I love the culture, and that everyone is there for one another. All of these things motivate me to be my best self, and allow me to learn while being a part of a community that genuinely cares for me and wants me to succeed.
