Open Quote Friends is a great school with a fantastic sense of community that leaves a student feeling like they can do anything. Friends' teachers are amazing and keep students focused and engaged in the lesson. Students learn to love learning here, and I find myself so excited to go back to school year after year. I'm a lifer and this will be my 11th year at Friends Seminary and I cannot even being to tell you how much I love this school. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
