St. Andrew's Episcopal School - General Information

St. Andrew’s Episcopal School is an independent, coeducational day school in Potomac, Maryland whose purpose is to challenge and nurture students of diverse abilities and interests in grades 6-12. Study in the arts, athletics and spiritual life balance the academically rigorous curriculum. Small classes, dedicated faculty and strong service learning teach values in a safe college preparatory environment.

Virtual reality is no substitute for the reality of St. Andrew's 19.2-acre campus in Potomac, Maryland. In September 1998 the community dedicated the campus and cut the ribbons on a 75,000 square foot classroom building. We encourage you to take an opportunity to come visit us.

A two-story library, flooded with light, is at the heart of the classroom building. It houses 14,000 volumes, an audio-visual classroom, a periodical reading room and several computer research stations. The librarian and two assistant librarians acquaint students and faculty with traditional printed sources and with the online catalogue and numerous online databases.

The full complement of classrooms includes three state-of-the-art Upper School laboratories and prep rooms, plus rooms outfitted for Middle School science.

A multi-purpose theater/assembly/lunch space features a stage and light/sound booth. There are two studios for the visual arts, including ceramics wheels and a kiln, plus a full darkroom.

The St. Andrew's gymnasium has a full-size basketball court. Athletic facilities include a weight room and a state-of-the-art dance studio, dedicated in the Spring of 2000. The studio doubles as a wrestling room.

The spring of 2000 saw the dedication of four tennis courts. There are two full fields, which serve for softball, baseball, lacrosse and soccer.
