Advisory Program



Advisor Groups

The purpose of the Minnehaha Academy Upper School Advisory Program is to provide each student with an adult from whom he or she can seek guidance, support, and help in the areas of academics, spiritual growth, and personal issues.

Every student is assigned a faculty/staff advisor and an advisor group of peers. Advisor groups are assigned by grade level and single gender (i.e. freshmen girls) and average 11 students in size. Groups stay together throughout the students’ high school career at MA.

Groups will normally meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays for 15 minutes following convocation/chapel.
