At St. Paul’s School for Girls, we seek to prepare our students to be the fearless innovators of tomorrow.

Overview

To everyone who believed in our Forward and Fearless Campaign vision and helped bring it to life—thank you.

Your generosity, commitment, and belief in our mission have made this $18 million, 25,000 square foot project a reality. Whether you gave your time, your resources, or your voice, you played a vital role in shaping a stronger future for our community. This project is more than bricks and mortar—it’s a reflection of our shared values, our hopes for the next generation, and the enduring spirit of St. Paul’s School for Girls. We are humbled by your support and inspired by what we’ve accomplished together. Thank you for being part of this journey. We couldn’t have done it without you.

New Experience+ Center

The St. Paul’s Schools boasts a robust Experience+ program which takes learning beyond the core curriculum and prepares students for life beyond our campus. Through five distinct areas of excellence—Finance and Entrepreneurship, Career Exploration, Digital Content and Communications, Civic and Global Engagement, and Ethical Leadership—Experience+ enhances learning at all grade levels. Each area offers innovative coursework and relevant experiences that challenge students to learn by doing in real-world situations.

Space That Inspires

A future-focused education requires dynamic spaces that integrate technology, invite collaboration, and activate hands-on learning. The success of the Forward & Fearless Campaign enabled this transformative investment in our students. Science and technology at SPSG are now more visible and accessible at SPSG.

It is experiential.

Future-focused learning involves active, hands-on, student-directed experiences that are not only more effective than passive, lecture-based instruction but also build a student’s sense of independence and investment in their own growth.
 
      

It is collaborative.

Project-based learning involves collaboration and teamwork, which help students build social, communication, and problem-solving skills as well as increasing their confidence in themselves and connections with one another.
 
      

It is relevant.

Twenty-first century programs explore real-world phenomena and challenges, which can help students immediately see the practical relevance and application of what they are learning, thereby boosting their motivation and engagement.


These are the conditions in which students thrive and future graduates flourish. These are the conditions in which students can best grow into conscientious individuals, self-directed leaders, confident communicators, innovative thinkers, and—above all—healthy risk takers.

“I am proud of the schools’ growth and adjustment to the changes in the world while always maintaining the Episcopal values as the foundation. Science is always breaking through to new frontiers, and our SPSG students are a part of these new explorations, while always understanding their ethical responsibilities and repercussions. They are always encouraged to stretch, take a leap of faith, try new things, and have the confidence they will land on her feet. Students may stumble but will—in the end—stand tall for who they are and what they believe.”

—Joanne Bartlett
Former Board President, Former Faculty/staff, and current grandparent

“I cannot overstate the impact of SPSG on my path or on my development during a time when I needed it most. I was embraced, supported, and challenged to be the very best version of my teenage self, and ultimately that foundation has fostered a lifelong pursuit of learning, justice, and service.”

—Ebony Harley ’05
Trustee and Former Alumnae Association President
