We believe the best learning happens when there is a strong, collaborative partnership between home and school. We want you to get to know us as much as we want to get to know you!
Our admissions events, hosted from September through January for admission the following school year, are intended to give prospective families a comprehensive overview of our mission, educational philosophy, community, and culture. Come experience the magic of SFS!
Information Sessions
During this virtual session, you’ll hear more about our school, mission and educational philosophy from our Head of School, Division Heads, and Admissions team. You’ll also enjoy an opportunity to ask questions during a middle school student panel discussion. Information Sessions are a mandatory step in the application process. Registration is available through Ravenna beginning September 1st.
