Randolph is a coeducational, college preparatory day school that enrolls nearly 1,000 students in prekindergarten through twelfth grade. Twice named a National School of Excellence by the U.S. Department of Education, Randolph is the only independent college prep school in North Alabama, and Huntsville is a thriving, but manageable metropolitan area that is routinely celebrated for its quality of life and openness to progress and innovation.

The Upper School resides on a classic collegiate-style campus, including a dedicated academic building, a fine arts complex with a 500-seat theater, and an athletic complex with gymnasium and strength and conditioning facilities. This separate campus, located less than a mile from the PK-8 campus, is now in its thirteenth year and enrolls 350 students in grades 9-12.
