Overlooking the ocean, St. George’s School is a co-ed, college preparatory boarding and day school for 365 students in grades 9-12. Our 125-acre campus boasts state-of-the-art academic, arts and athletic facilities on a hilltop near Newport, Rhode Island.
Founded in 1896 as an Episcopal boarding school by the Rev. John Byron Diman, the school lives firmly in the 21st century, with state-of-the-art academic and athletic facilities. A community drawn from a wide range of traditions and backgrounds in the U.S. and around the world, St. George’s extends opportunities for teachers and students to deepen their skills, find new passions and discover their best selves, whether that be in a DNA sequencing lab, in competition on the basketball court, at sea navigating by starlight, or abroad in one of our unique service-learning internships. With a faculty committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment for intellectual, social and personal development, St. George’s continues to fulfill its mission through enrolling a diverse, academically talented, and well-rounded student body. True to our Episcopal heritage, we welcome students, faculty and staff of all faiths.
Supporting students and faculty to develop educational experiences that act as laboratories for deeper learning, the Connected Learning Department leverages passions, relationships, and our networked world to build knowledge and capacity of all within our diverse learning community. The department forges connections outside the classroom through continuous engagement with our surrounding environment, service learning experiences, and curriculum driven travel opportunities.
Connected curricula create the perfect opportunity for growth through ongoing dialogue, personal and communal reflection, and the development of both empathy and curiosity across classrooms, on trips, and in service to others.
