Our Curriculum
St. Stephen's exposes students to the fundamentals of a classic liberal-arts education, incorporating English, history, math, science, languages, theology, and a number of elective options, including visual arts, performing arts, computer science, and much more.  It is the goal in every St. Stephen’s class to produce not only knowledgeable graduates but thoughtful and engaged human beings.

The fundamentals of a subject are only the raw material for the development of each student's powers of observation and their ability to think clearly and analytically about the world.  These skills are relevant to every field–whether chemistry, poetry, or history– and in emphasizing the life skills of disciplined thought and sustained effort toward a complex goal, St. Stephen's prepares its students for the challenges of college-level classes.

Academics at St. Stephen's
The foundation of the St. Stephen's experience is the school's rigorous academic program. Long acknowledged as one of the region's pre-eminent college- preparatory schools, St. Stephen's has emerged as a national leader in preparatory education, and its graduates consistently go on to study at the country’s most prestigious colleges and universities.

The St. Stephen's academic program is designed for able, motivated young people who plan to attend college. Much is asked of these young people in terms of time, dedication, and effort while at St. Stephen's. In return, they receive a world-class education from teachers who are deeply committed not only to teaching but also to the success and well-being of their students. Small class sizes and personal interaction with faculty, both in and out of the classroom, ensure that every student can develop his or her potential to the fullest.
