The City is Our School
Students will recognize they are valued members of a larger family due to the loving, authentic relationships that are built and a sense of belonging that is developed. Students will enter the community being able to take risks, contribute to society, and celebrate diversity.
Welcome!
The mission of St. Stephen’s Episcopal School is to provide a superior education in an Episcopal setting to students of all faiths and ethnic heritages, cultivating confident individuals who contribute positively to their families, school, and larger community.
Why do our families choose us?
Location
We are in walking distance of countless cultural, natural, historical, and educational resources. Our students routinely walk to theaters, museums, libraries, and state government buildings to participate in the real life of our city and region. Every day we live our tag line “The City is Our School!”
Learning with a Purpose
Our educational approach is experiential, student-centered, and project-based. Our students are learning to think critically, speak clearly, and act boldly!
Diversity
St. Stephen’s benefits from a student body and family community that is diverse in terms of race, culture, language, socio-economics, faith, gender, and sexual identity. Our Diversity is our strength!
Community
With a 1:7 staff to student ratio, every young person gets individualized attention at SSES. Small class sizes mean that faculty can tailor their instruction to the interests and needs of each student.
