Abington Friends School is an independent co-ed Quaker school for students ages 3 through grade 12. In a culture of intellectual and creative ambition we cultivate fearless, curious learning. Engaged and purposeful in every moment, students leave AFS with clear, strong and thoughtful voices, prepared for lives of meaning and accomplishment. At Abington Friends School, we enjoy an essential freedom in the day-to-day learning environment and the powerful overall program we are able to build for our students. We are free to create a lively and broad-based program rich in the arts, to teach explicitly for deeper understanding and student initiative, to create time for reflection, and to make room for a richly social dynamic inside the classroom and out. Daily, we live the difference that is made when outstanding teachers are supported in doing their absolute best in the development of children. Abington Friends School welcomes applications from families who seek an intellectually exciting education in a program designed to provide the best experience for teaching and learning.
