"St. George’s graduates are not only prepared to thrive academically in college, but through their experiences at our school, they are already engaged in making their communities better."

Gil Brandon Assistant Head for Institutional Advancement

"It is rarely the case that you are able to work where you attended elementary school. That privilege provides me unique perspective on St. George’s and allows me to see that, while there have certainly been improvements and growth with teaching and learning, the mission and vision have remained strong over the years. That fuels me each and every day as the advancement team builds community and promotes philanthropy at St. George’s."

"The dedicated faculty of St. George's prepares students for the day ahead by challenging them to take their learning to the next level. They utilize engaging and innovative instruction designed to encourage collaboration and communication among classmates, which are skills that are vital in our ever changing world."

Amy Michalak Memphis Campus Director

"I love that St. George's doesn't put learning in a box. While every teacher strives toward the same exit goal, they aren't confined to specific guidelines or standards that may hinder students' abilities to learn. The environment at St. George's allows students to learn in the best way that fits them individually."

Lori Williamson Chief Academic Officer

Pam McCarthy Upper School Director

"I was drawn to the mission of St. George's, specifically the piece that references preparing students to be meaningful contributors. St. George's is a place that truly walks its talk."
