Admissions Welcome
Saint David’s. Where boys are known, challenged, and inspired to become good men.
Welcome to Saint David’s, where every day we maintain a singular focus on our Founders’ enduring vision: nurturing boys to become “good men.” This mission comes alive through our faculty's deep expertise in how boys learn best, informed by continuous research and professional development that spans our own halls and extends to educational insights from around the world. Our ongoing commitment to educating boys to be critical thinkers and highly effective communicators is at the core of everything we do.
At Saint David’s, we emphasize balance across our four pillars of academics, athletics, arts, and spirituality. Boys thrive when they can explore freely and across disciplines during these formative years – whether they're diving deep into a science experiment, expressing themselves through music or visual arts, or engaging in meaningful discussions about character and purpose. This rich variety naturally draws them away from screens and into authentic experiences that spark curiosity and build confidence.
Just as important to the Saint David’s experience is our meaningful focus on kindness, empathy, and generosity. Woven into the culture of the school, these values foster respect for oneself and others, incorporate expressions of gratitude, and scaffold a boy’s ability to take measured risks. Together, they are the basis for positive social-emotional development and the foundation for a lasting sense of well-being.
We look forward to meeting you, and we are excited to support your exploration of Saint David’s program!
