LEARN THROUGH DISCOVERY.
SMS has a rigorous academic program that provides both appropriate enrichment and support. In addition to their core academic courses, our students are immersed in a diversity of Arts and STEM opportunities that not only build confidence and public speaking skills but also allow students to discover their passions.
THE SMS DIFFERENCE:
There is an atmosphere at St. Michael’s of high expectation – teachers who speak passionately about their role in educating the next generation of student leadership in the community and in the world; trustees who view St. Michael’s as the finest school in Newport and who aspire to build the finest school in the country; parents who make sacrifices and commitments to help create a dynamic, inspiring community for their children; students who sense the importance of these years in determining their character and future success.
Our daughter – now in 6th grade – has had a fabulous experience at St. Michael’s since starting Kindergarten six years ago. We have watched her thrive academically and socially with the wonderful support of highly skilled and highly motivated teachers. Not to mention the support and kindness of amazing classmates and their families. And the school’s ongoing responsiveness to us as a family – from the school heads to teachers to staff – has been outstanding. It has been a true partnership for all these years. We can’t imagine being anywhere else.

My son's confidence level has tripled since being at St. Michael's.

During my visit to St. Michael's, it was very clear to me that each and every teacher teaches to the individual child, not just a group of children. Teachers and St. Michael's know each and every one of the children they teach and it is obvious that they truly care. St. Michael's is an extremely warm and nurturing environment, one that I have not found elsewhere. We have found our sweet spot here on the island and feel incredibly blessed to be part of such an incredible environment.
