The Haverford School

The Haverford School is a vibrant, private day school for remarkable boys, pre-kindergarten-12th grade. Our campus is located on Philadelphia's Main Line.

The Haverford School is a leader in educating boys, and our boys are at the heart of all we do. They are talented scholars, artists, and athletes – and so much more.

At Haverford, we create a culture that celebrates boys. We recognize their innate competitiveness, their boundless energy, their need to learn with their hands and by doing, their sense of humor, their sense of justice and fairness, and their age-appropriate learning needs, and we teach accordingly. We develop compassion and empathy, and teach that such traits are the full expression of being a man.

At Haverford, boys are artists, actors, musicians, athletes, and keepers of Haverfords exceptional intellectual and moral reputation. They administer an Honor Code that governs the conduct of all members of the community. At Haverford, it is okay to like poetry, music, and art and, at the same time, compete in the oldest and most demanding secondary school sports league in the country, the Inter-Academic League.
