• Our Programs

95% of families who choose Friends School are not Quaker.

So why do we say that “Quaker matters”? Because at Friends...
 
  • Each student is known and valued as an individual; caring teachers lead a responsive program.
  • Students learn to challenge themselves to their absolute best with a sense of responsibility to others.
  • The intellectual/academic foundation is defined by questioning, discovery, and relevance.
  • Character education, mindfulness, stewardship, and social justice are part of our founding mission.
