Founded in 1961 by the Episcopal School Foundation, Saint Andrew’s School (SAS) began as a boarding and day school for 122 boys. Over more than five decades, the school has expanded in scope and mission, and today it is a premier coeducational day and boarding school with approximately 1,280 students in junior kindergarten through grade 12. While Saint Andrew’s has evolved, its focus has remained on providing a rigorous college preparatory education that fosters students’ intellectual, physical, and spiritual development and instills a lifelong dedication to learning. Saint Andrew’s School expands upon the classic New England preparatory and boarding school traditions with a unique perspective in Southeast Florida, creating a vibrant, global school. SAS hosts resident students from over 30 countries and is the only school in the United States to be both a member of the esteemed worldwide association known as Round Square International and an accredited International Baccalaureate School. The school’s challenging academic program is distinguished by the breadth and depth of its curriculum, its collaborative environment in which students are encouraged to take prudent risks in pursuit of their own growth, and multiple extracurricular and experiential opportunities. Saint Andrew’s School believes that balance is critical in life; and through offerings ranging from athletics to arts to special organizations and clubs, students can explore and realize their passions. The school takes pride in its ability to serve a wide variety of learners and to maximize the potential of all students while also celebrating the unique talents of each individual. A culture characterized by high goals, hard work, healthy relationships, generosity of spirit, and a sense of play provides the context for students to develop as moral citizens who positively impact their world. As the school’s strategic plan states: “Saint Andrew’s students are independent lifelong learners. They think globally and act locally. They are confident communicators and good listeners. They are bright, empathetic, inquisitive, creative, respectful, principled, faithful, and balanced individuals. Saint Andrew’s students are leaders by example in the classroom, on the playing field, on the stage and in the community.” For more information about the school, responsibilities, and candidate qualifications, please see the complete search profile. |
