Bella Vista added high school courses beginning in the fall of 2009. The High School curriculum is an accelerated curriculum. A focus on global studies, the use of problem and project based learning and a wide variety of opportunities for learning experiences outside of the classroom are a key to our approach to learning and preparing high school students to excel in the college environment. The "Early College" program was added for the fall of 2010 for students entering their Junior year. students enrolled in this course of study will earn thirty to thirty five college credits through the program. In addition students will earn high school credit for lab science classes taken through the college. Bella Vista is currently the only private high school to offer the program.
