School Mission Statement
The George School community, committed to Quaker ideals, cultivates respect for differences by affirming the Light of God in everyone. We teach our students to aspire to excellence as we prepare them for further education and a lifetime of learning as members of the global community.
School Background
The history curriculum reflects Quaker concern with human problems which transcend national barriers, such as the causes and consequences of poverty, racism, intolerance, and conflict. Students are encouraged to develop empathy for people of all nations, racial groups, and economic strata. All history courses place heavy emphasis on developing strong reading and interpretive skills. A research paper is required in every course.
