EduCativPosted October 26, 2020SharePosted October 26, 2020 St. Christopher's is a committed global leader in understanding, engaging, and teaching boys effectively. We help boys develop the character, wisdom, and life skills required to succeed in college and positively impact leaders in a rapidly changing world. Our faculty is passionate about teaching here--not despite boys' unique characteristics--but because of them. Our unique partnership with St. Catherine's School combines the benefits of a focused, single-sex education with the best elements of a coed experience. Our curriculum helps us discover what is unique in every boy. We build on their strengths, help them gain confidence, and discover and express themselves while instilling values to guide them throughout their lives. Honor, leadership, and community service play a significant role in educating children. These concepts cannot be phrases we pay lip service to in admissions gatherings but must have an active and intentional place within a school's curriculum. At St. Christopher's, we call this "Educating the Whole Boy." The concept of "educating the whole boy" sets us apart from other independent schools for boys. Participation in our non-traditional curriculum is not elective but woven into the fabric of every boy's experience. Each faculty member is committed to bringing out the best in every boy, regardless of whether the pursuit is academic, artistic, or spiritual. We believe that men of character do not develop in a vacuum but rather in a nurturing and challenging environment, which we readily provide. St. Christopher's invites you to read about our Academic, Athletic, and Arts programs -- but more importantly, read about what makes us unique. See how our unique sense of community is reflected in the active involvement of parents, alumni, and friends of the School, whose shared values make St. Christopher is a better place. St. Christopher's School prepares a talented and diverse group of boys for college and life in an ever-changing world. Through a rigorous academic program and a supportive community experience, the School fosters personal integrity and honor, the achievement of each boy's full potential, love of learning, spiritual growth, respect for others, leadership, and civic responsibility. St. Christopher strives for excellence and seeks to make an enduring difference in its boys' lives. Our educational philosophy and programming will continue to evolve and grow as we position the boys for future leadership. We will foster the wisdom--where academic rigor and judgment meet--and personal qualities necessary for our boys to make a tangible difference in our shrinking global community, with emphasis on those qualities of increasing importance in today's world. The community's strength has served as a cornerstone of St. Christopher's success since its founding. The Second Century Vision reinforces St. Christopher's commitment to a school community that is diverse, inclusive, and welcoming. From the Board of Governors, through our faculty and families, to the student body, the value of diversity is recognized and advanced through policy initiatives, curriculum and programming, and commitment of school resources.View full schoolQuoteLink to commentShare on other sitesMore sharing options...
