Academics

St.Giri teachers and students bring a diversity of knowledge, experiences, and accomplishments to our community. But what we all share is an intense curiosity and a love of learning.

At each grade level, students are challenged academically and personally to learn and grow. From the lab to the stage, our faculty and staff guide students as they gain understanding and proficiency across all disciplines. Our academic program is designed to teach students the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will best prepare them for success in a global society.

St.Giri students are supported by faculty and staff with outstanding experience and credentials in their fields, as well as a passion for educating young people. In addition to their teachers, our students have access to a wide range of educational specialists in our library, laboratory, computer labs and playground. Our diverse community of adults forges meaningful relationships with students, with the goal of each student being personally supported and known.

We strive to provide an equitable learning environment for all students, and we believe every student should have an equal opportunity to participate in and contribute to the life of the school. When everyone can bring their full selves to the table, we all benefit.

Primary & Middle School: Academic success and healthy personal development

At St.Giri Public School, academic success and healthy personal development go hand in hand. We strive to provide a relevant, challenging, and interdisciplinary academic curriculum that is developmentally appropriate for our student body. We know that academic success in middle school depends on meeting students’ developmental needs as well. Our faculty and staff create learning environments that are respectful, supportive, and inclusive, and where students can connect with others who share their interests.

St.Giri School faculty and staff specialize in working with students of young age. They have developed curriculum, experiential programs, and a school culture that help students develop critical thinking, creativity, curiosity, and the ability to connect with others; nurture healthy development of brain and body, and social-emotional intelligence; and ensure that students have the ability to communicate, self-correct, manage their time, and set and achieve goals.

Senior School: High challenge, high support

St.Giri’s Senior School academic program reflects our belief in the importance of broad study in the liberal arts and fostering global understanding. Our faculty foster rigorous, collaborative learning environments where students can develop their critical thinking, take creative and intellectual risks, and deeply engage in the content. Our curriculum is tailored specifically to allow for and encourage student choice from freshman through senior year.
