A fun, challenging place to
prepare for college
The Upper School at Saint George's is a rigorous, college-preparatory program. It’s an energetic setting where outstanding teachers encourage and challenge each student, preparing them to succeed in higher education. Many of our graduates go on to the most selective colleges and universities in the country.

Most Upper School students take a full slate of Advanced Placement classes. They also can choose from college prep and advanced courses as varied as Elements of Engineering, Game Theory, and Magic Realism in Literature. Each choice is enticing. Physics students build marble roller coasters to test G forces. Geometry students blow bubbles to examine the angles of three-dimensional objects. French students study French movies every Monday, Spanish students create memorials for the Mexican “Day of the Dead,” and our first Mandarin Chinese teacher arrived in the summer of 2006.

Whatever the subject, our students value the personal attention they get in small classes with our talented teachers. Parents also value the regular communication with teachers, such as individually written comments on their student’s progress that come home with grades four times a year. It’s details like this that set Saint George’s apart from every other high school in the area.
