I came here in high school and found that Friends School is a place where every student is trying to be good, whether it's being kind to others or doing well in class. The teachers here are passionate about their subjects and their students, and I've truly benefited from being surrounded by people who genuinely want me to succeed. You'll find your people here, you'll explore your passions, and you'll always have cheerleaders rooting you on.

My son loves it here. He's in 2nd grade and is enjoying the challenge and his teacher. He comes home talking about what he's learned and excited.

Lower school was really fine. Teachers were great and really seemed to love the kids. Middle school is an unmitigated disaster from Admin down the ranks. Do not send your child here. It is not you, it is this school that is downright toxic. Quaker values? Only in the brochure and on the website.
