Mission Statement

Carolina Friends School is a vibrant and inclusive learning community empowering students to think critically, creatively, and independently. We foster active exploration and quiet reflection, individual endeavor and collaborative engagement. Inspired by Quaker values -- pursuit of truth, respect for all, peaceful resolution of conflict, simplicity, the call to service -- we teach our children that it is possible to change the world.

Description

Carolina Friends School was founded in 1962 and opened in 1964 by members of the Durham and Chapel Hill Friends Meetings to provide a racially integrated school exemplifying Quaker values. The School, located on 126 acres near Durham, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough, North Carolina, now has a total enrollment of 500 students from ages three to eighteen and approximately 95 full- and part-time staff members.
