Founded in 1856, St. Paul鈥檚 School is a coeducational, fully residential school for grades 9-12. Situated on 2,000 acres in Concord, N.H., the School maintains historic affiliation with the Episcopal Church while supporting the beliefs of other faiths.
Academic Program:
The School鈥檚 diploma requirements allow considerable choice while also ensuring a breadth of scholarship in a rigorous academic environment. In addition to non-academic requirements in athletics/activities and community engagement, students are required to take five credits during each of the three academic terms. While most courses run for the full year, some meet for one term. Students are limited to five courses per term and must receive special permission to exceed this limit. All SPS courses are college preparatory. Our highest-level courses are labeled differently by the academic departments as regular, honors and advanced. (See the chart below.) While we do not offer an AP curriculum, many courses are beyond normal secondary-school academics; several use college-level texts and are designed to match undergraduate offerings.
