St. George's School, founded in 1896, is a coeducational boarding school located on a breathtaking 125-acre oceanfront campus in Middletown, Rhode Island — on Aquidneck Island, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and just minutes from Newport. The school's setting is among the most spectacular of any secondary school in the United States.
St. George's enrolls approximately 370 students from across the United States and over 25 countries. The school's oceanfront location is central to its identity — sailing, rowing, and marine science are woven into the curriculum and extracurricular life in ways unique among boarding schools. The school's boathouse and waterfront facilities are exceptional.
The academic program is rigorous and college-preparatory, with particular strengths in the sciences, environmental studies, and the arts. St. George's consistently sends graduates to the most selective universities in the country, and the school's college counseling program is among the most experienced in New England boarding education.
Newport's extraordinary cultural resources are a major asset for students. The Newport Mansions, Newport Folk and Jazz Festivals, the International Tennis Hall of Fame, and the Naval War College all provide enrichment opportunities that few boarding schools can match. The combined St. George's-Newport environment creates a uniquely cosmopolitan experience for students.
