The Best Private School in Houston
At The Banff School, our mission is to "Educate the Whole Child,” providing exciting and engaging curriculum as well as unique programs and activities that help the students grow and mature, both academically and creatively. It is these one-of-a-kind programs that we feel set our school apart and have helped to grow and foster our amazing community of learners, leaders and global citizens.
I love my school because it is unpredictable! We always have new, fun things to do - you can walk in one day and the whole day, unexpectedly, has an exciting event or experience happening! It keeps you on your toes. Christy - 10th grade student
