Tylen is an environment and sustainability major with a concentration in policy and advocacy as well as minors in politics and GIS. Tylen shares that she enjoys working with children and loves that students at SA are getting comfortable with the environment and building a love for it.

Priority Enrollment for SA Families

Why do our families choose an independent school? Hear from Salisbury Academy and other independent schools in a video by NCAIS (North Carolina Association of Independent Schools). Through the holistic approach, high standards of excellence, and personalized connection of an independent school, students are known and are empowered to reach their fullest potential while learning to care for themselves and others.
