Tomorrow's Leaders Grow in Tandem

Tandem Friends School is where curious, creative students in grades 5-12 become independent, engaged, and imaginative learners and leaders.

It’s a place where students are given the agency to explore their passions, make their own choices, and find meaning in their pursuit of knowledge and their contributions to the world.

It’s a compassionate, inclusive community, rooted in Quaker values and distinguished by a progressive, purposed-based education.

Here, on our 31-acre campus in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Charlottesville, Virginia, teachers and students collaborate in the learning process; academic excellence is knowledge-oriented, not achievement-oriented; and every student is encouraged to embrace their inner light of wisdom.

When you join the Tandem Friends School family, you forge a genuine lifelong connection. The Tandem Admissions Team is excited to help you start your story.
