Saint Andrew's School

Saint Andrew’s School is an Independent School founded in the Episcopal tradition. Our mission is to build a community of learners, provide excellence in education, and nurture each student in mind, body, and spirit. Saint Andrew's will be a leader in providing a unified academic community unparalleled in inspiring students to lead honorable lives of purpose and take on limitless opportunities to impact the world.

The centerpiece of the Honor System is the Honor Code, which states: “Honor Above All.” The Honor Code represents the highest ideals of moral development, integrity, sportsmanship, and achievement, as well as respect for the ideas, work, and property of others. It is designed to teach students how to live their lives honorably and morally to be successful in college and life.

We are committed to the ongoing development of a culture that honors diversity and affirms the essential dignity of each member of our community. It is among our highest responsibilities to make our school a place that is safe and welcoming for all.

We believe that the pursuit of justice is core to the foundation of who we are as a school and central to our educational mission. We seek to help young people develop cross-cultural communication skills and empathetic understanding across differences of age, ability, family makeup, socioeconomic status, culture, religion, sexuality, gender, language, national origin, and ethnicity. We intend that all members of our community--faculty, staff, students, and families alike--will value civil discourse and service to others, and we hope to graduate students prepared, as their circumstances may demand, to act with moral courage.
