Academics
OUR MISSION
A rigorous private school, college-preparatory curriculum, St. George’s Episcopal School develops high standards and character while creating an environment that fosters self-confidence and the joy of learning. St. George’s charges our students to meet the demands of academic excellence with integrity and models responsible citizenship in a changing world. Our mission, “to learn with passion, serve with respect, live with purpose, and lead with integrity” defines who we are as a school and as a community.
LEARNING ENRICHMENT CENTER
Students at St. George’s have an opportunity to gain further instruction through our Learning Enrichment Center. Both Orton-Gillingham trained instructors, as well as standard content tutors, are available for students who need extra help in a certain area.
BEYOND THE CLASSROOM
Students do not just sit at a desk or computer at St. George’s….they are learning beyond the classroom through field trips, class experiences, and class trips. Seeing the world around them is crucial to their understanding.
LIBRARY
The St. George’s Library is an integral part of the educational program and serves as a vital information resource for SGES students, staff, and faculty. Students are encouraged to develop the skills necessary to locate, analyze, evaluate, interpret and communicate ideas and information in the library.
COLLEGE COUNSELING
In keeping with our mission, St. George’s is a student-centered learning environment designed to prepare students for college and the world beyond. In a setting that promotes curiosity, exploration, and individuality the college office wants to help each student identify their interests and goals and develop skills that will set them apart in a competitive world. Through a four-year process, we work closely with each student to provide support and guidance starting in the 9th grade and culminating in an exciting college search process.
