Peddie is more than a school you'll attend, it's a community that you'll help create. On the stage, in the classroom or on the field, you'll discover and explore your passions in a community that supports you and cheers you on every step of the way.

We are a private, coed boarding and day school located in central New Jersey, just outside of Princeton and only an hour from New York and Philadelphia. Here, faculty is family, the campus is home and the world is our classroom.

Guided by the confidence of our motto, “We Finish Our Labors to Begin Them Anew,” The Peddie School is committed to the intellectual, social and moral growth of each of our students. We welcome individuals with diverse talents and backgrounds whose excitement, curiosity and character create an educational community where passion for learning grows. With enthusiasm, humor and patience, we challenge our students to reach beyond their expectations and to define success by the progress they make. In this boarding school environment, we not only prepare our students for the rigors and rewards of college, but also inspire each to strive for the highest quality of citizenship.

The Diversity mural (above), designed and painted by Peddie students, is proudly displayed in the Student Center. It was inspired by the variety of cultures, backgrounds and nationalities represented at Peddie. The Peddie School embraces the sustained and ongoing work of making our community inclusive, safe and welcoming for all of our students and adults.

We are committed to the intellectual, social and moral growth of each of our students; we intentionally craft an educational community of individuals with diverse talents and backgrounds and we inspire each of our students to strive for the highest quality of citizenship.

To achieve this mission, Peddie seeks to remove every barrier to access, equity and safety for every member of our school. Each day, we work toward a more inclusive, antiracist and open community. And thus, we begin our labors anew.
