At Tandem Friends School, we believe that the finest
education is achieved through an active partnership
between faculty and students. Teachers are dedicated
to the intellectual, aesthetic and moral growth of each
student. In turn, our students are expected to enter
into this partnership with a sense of responsibility
and respect for their mentors and for the entire school
community.
As a college preparatory school, Tandem Friends sets
high standards of academic excellence, which includes
creative thought and independent thinking. Tandem Friends
offers rigorous training in core skills of verbal and
quantitative reasoning as well as self-expression. Our
two mottoes, “Freedom with Responsibility”
and “Kindness and Wisdom,” are prevalent
in everyday activities and are important components
of the Tandem Friends experience. The curriculum is
broad and innovative and is complemented by attention
to the individual student.
Our high expectations of students are possible because
our faculty and staff meet a high standard of professional
and personal excellence in their work. We
actively foster our employees’ continuing growth
through professional development funding and an environment
that is characterized by open communication, collaboration
and a strong sense of community. The combination of
motivated students, engaged families, active institutional
support and highly qualified employees makes Tandem
Friends a dynamic learning community.
Tandem Friends School is a co-educational, independent
day school with a diverse enrollment of 240 students.
The school is located on a 23-acre campus in Charlottesville,
