Why Choose CSP MS/HS?

Chesapeake Science Point Middle/High School offers a college preparatory program focused on mathematics, science, and technology. CSP MS/HS has evolved from a choice school to a strong partnership program with its parent and non-parent community members. The main philosophy of instruction is challenging all students to their maximum academic and social capacity by involving the parents in the learning and teaching process. One of the significant features of the CSP community is the level of dedication from the staff and the parents. This provides very strong motivation for students to go above and beyond because of direct access to role models.
