Saint Edward’s has grown and prospered as one of the best Florida independent schools since its founding in 1965 as a day school for students seeking a superior college-preparatory education. Enrolling students in preschool, elementary, middle and high school levels, today we serve just under 650 students in pre-k3 through grade 12. Saint Edward’s students benefit from intense faculty involvement and superb teaching faculty in small classes. Our expectations for student achievement are high and students rise to the occasion. Saint Edward’s students begin college counseling with experienced counselors during the 8th grade and better than 90% of the graduating class is accepted into their college or university of first or second choice. Our SAT scores are well above state and national averages and are the highest achieved on the Treasure Coast. In keeping with our independent Episcopal School tradition, Saint Edward's places an emphasis on developing moral and spiritual character and good citizenship.
