Principal's Message

King’s faculty and staff are dedicated to preparing our students for college and beyond. We pride ourselves in creating an environment that challenges our Jaguars academically while developing them socially. Students will have endless opportunities to excel and find their passion. King students also have access to a robust fine arts and different extracurricular and athletic opportunities outside the classroom. This balance of academics and a supportive environment ensures that your student has the best and most affordable post-secondary options when they graduate from King!
