Friends' Central students flourish in a culture of learning that requires a dedication to excellence. Our goal is to provide every student at Friends' Central with the tools they need to thrive in our school and in life. Whether we are nurturing our students as learners or supporting their emotional, social, or physical well-being, we are aiding young people who will achieve their promise in the context of our challenging curriculum, in our community, and in the world.
Student Services is divided into three areas of expertise: Health Services, Learning Support, and Counseling. Our Team supports students, teachers, and families in a comprehensive and thoughtful way by working together to help students maximize their experience at Friends’ Central both inside and outside of the classroom.
