About

Carolina Friends School is a preK–12 co-ed day school inspired by Quaker values, committed to excellence in all we do. We believe the best education amplifies a child's curiosity, courage and creative thinking. 


Every day, we empower our students to question the world around them, discover their passions, think deeply, and use their voices in service of the greater good. Because when our students are taught how to think, not just what to think, they are prepared to confidently navigate their own path, advocate for themselves and others, and impact the world around them.

Our Mission

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.
