Mission:

The mission of Friends School Haverford is to foster a lifelong love of learning, grounded in an appreciation of that of God in everyone. We provide a learning environment that challenges and stimulates our students to achieve their full potential. We strive to be a diverse school family practicing the Quaker values of integrity, equality, service, community, simplicity, and peaceful problem solving.

As a child-centered school, we seek to create an atmosphere within which children learn to work independently and in cooperation with others. We challenge our students to question, explore, reflect, reason, and communicate effectively. We strive to empower them with knowledge, hope, confidence, and the ability to make thoughtful choices. We want our students, as contributing members of the community, to grow and change with flexibility and courage and to treat others with care and understanding.
