School Notes Overview: |
Portsmouth Abbey School is a coeducational boarding and day school for students in grades 9-12. The Portsmouth Abbey education is grounded in the Western intellectual tradition, from ancient Greece and Rome and continuing into this century. This classical curriculum is balanced by a focus on spirituality, athletics, the arts and fun. The aim of Portsmouth Abbey School is to help young men and women grow in knowledge and grace. Grounded in the Catholic faith and 1500 year-old Benedictine intellectual tradition, the school fosters: reverence for God and the human person; respect for learning and order; responsibility for the shared experience of community life. We believe it is vitally important to introduce our students to the classics and the best of the Western intellectual tradition, which includes both the humanities and the sciences. Portsmouth Abbey School develops the mind, heart, and body through an integrated and ordered progression of learning in a structured environment. ...read more
