Small Classes, Big Impact

founded in 1969

Welcome to St. George’s

There is power to being known, and at St. George’s, every child is. They are known by name, by interest and by potential from their very first days on campus and find their voices through our Cottonwood Oratory Festival and community-building House system. As a coed, Nursery to 8th grade school, we offer a nurturing and highly personalized learning environment during the most formative years of a child’s development, made possible through our best-in-market student-teacher ratios, leveled small groups for reading and math and nationally-recognized expertise in the Project Approach.

The St. George's Experience

At St. George's we realize that children grow in and out of the classroom. St. George's provides a variety of opportunities and programs to foster social and emotional learning, promote belonging and engage the community.

Project Approach

Rooted in research-based best practices, the Project Approach emphasizes creativity and critical thinking, seamlessly integrating academic goals with social-emotional development and nurturing curious and confident learners at every stage of growth from age 1 through 8th grade.

Project-based learning

Resource Services

Since 1975, St. George’s has served both locally and nationally as a leader in providing support services for children. Resource Services exists as a part of St. George's to assist students with learning, academic and/or speech/language difficulties. Our team of specialists, working in partnership with classroom teachers, provides students with a fully integrated program to help our students find individual success. 

Academic Support

House System

The house system fosters school spirit while promoting our core values and sense of community and belonging. Sorted into the Dragons, Spartans or Trojans in 1st grade, students earn points for their houses through academics, athletics, traditions and core values.

Athletics

With both team and individual options, student athletes learn the value of commitment, teamwork and personal growth. Athletics at StG are not just about competition; they are about building resilience, leadership and the confidence to meet challenges head-on while fostering friendships and a lasting sense of community.
