Admission

We know students who feel comfortable bringing their whole selves to school do more than get by. They thrive. Our expert faculty and coaches truly get to know your child, unlocking their potential within.

Start Your  Journey

Join a vibrant community of energized students who become engaged, global citizens.

Our teachers believe in fostering age-appropriate independence so that students learn to make choices, to experiment, to fail safely, and to be curious. St. Anne’s-Belfield and Charlottesville, Va. are vibrant, inclusive communities where we learn about and from one another. Our students leave prepared to make a positive impact on the world around them, wherever their journeys may lead.
