Welcomes a New Year of Possibilities
The St. Andrew’s community is joyfully settling into new routines - shaking off summer schedules, navigating the morning carpool shuffle, and, most importantly, preparing to embrace the incredible opportunities that lie ahead as we gather for the start of the 2025–2026 school year. With over 980 students enrolled in grades K–12, St. Andrew’s is thriving, brimming with anticipation for what promises to be a milestone year.
On September 5, St. Andrew’s School will celebrate the grand opening of a $32 million, 58,000-square-foot Athletics Complex & Student Union. This extraordinary new facility will serve as a vibrant hub for all of our scholars, artists, athletes, and servants - a place where our community will gather, learn, compete, and grow together. We are deeply grateful to the families who generously supported this important project.
St. Andrew’s Chapel theme for 2025 is “Greet Every Saint,” inspired by Philippians 4:21 and captures the spirit with which our entire community begins this new school year.
These simple words invite SAS Highlanders to welcome each person they encounter with grace, kindness, and hospitality. In living this theme, students are learning what it means to be joyful people - curious, resilient, and thoughtful servant leaders. This fall, St. Andrew’s proudly launched its new international exchange program in partnership with Momoyama-Gakuin (St. Andrew’s) school in Osaka, Japan. In August, St. Andrew’s welcomed two Japanese students from Osaka to campus, while two SAS sophomores embarked on their inaugural year-long journey abroad - deepening global understanding and friendships.
What’s more, we also celebrate the remarkable accomplishments of the Class of 2025, who earned a 100% acceptance rate to four-year colleges and universities, garnering admissions to 163 schools and choosing to attend 55 colleges and universities worldwide this fall. As we launch this exciting school year, we do so with faith in the future and joy in the present.
St. Andrew’s is a place where every student is seen, valued, and celebrated, and we are prepared to welcome every opportunity and every person as a gift, shaping us into the curious, resilient, and compassionate leaders the world needs. At St. Andrew’s, the possibilities are endlessand we empower students to be ready to greet them all!
