General Information

Part of The Steward School's mission is "to prepare each child for college and for life.” Critical to this endeavor are the faculty and staff members of our School; the faculty are the architects, masons, and custodians who design, construct, and tend to the learning that aspires to be both challenging and supportive.

Our core character values are honor, responsibility, and achievement, balanced by caring and respect for one’s self and for others. The Steward School is committed to small classes and to small overall size, which allow for discovery and development of each student’s unique talents and passions, while providing more opportunities for individual participation. We believe an environment with a diversity of talents, abilities, cultures, and backgrounds provides the richest and most fully rounded educational experience.
