School Profile 2023-24 ACT/CEEB# 470435
ABOUT US St. Anne’s-Belfield School is a nurturing and challenging age 2 through Grade 12 co-ed academic community in Charlottesville, Virginia. Since 1910, we have sought to foster students’ natural curiosity and love of learning so that they may become, in the words of our founding headmistress Mary Hyde DuVal, “strong in body, broad of mind, tender of heart, responsive in soul.” We believe that small classes, expert and caring faculty, and an environment built on mutual respect is essential to preparing students to become exemplary citizens and visionary leaders.
