Mission Driven
Our singular, focused mission permeates every aspect of St. David's School.
It defines who we are as a community of learning, and delineates our character and caliber of offerings. It distinguishes St. David's from other competitive college preparatory schools. It informs every decision St. David's leaders make in directing the daily life of the school, and in charting a deliberate course for its future.
In the classroom, in the arts, on the fields and courts of play, among our faculty and facilities, within the local and global community--on every front, St. David's School strives to achieve the greatest of expectations.
