The Pen Ryn School vs. Newtown Friends School

The Pen Ryn School is a unique private school that functions with mutual respect, support, and enthusiasm in a nurturing atmosphere. Parents, teachers, administrators, and alumni strive to build an educational home.

Students can then grow with loving care, and gain self-respect and confidence.

The Pen Ryn School family will nurture students in a safe, caring environment, where the curriculum considers individual needs and encourages the pursuit of educational excellence at each student's potential, empower each student with essential skills necessary to become an independent critical thinker and life-long learner, and encourage respect for oneself and others, while contributing to the community as a productive and responsible citizen.

Newtown Friends School provides an education full of academic challenge, where students are encouraged to engage in the learning process, and to think creatively and independently.

We are a community rooted in Quaker values, where respect is taught in principle and exemplified in practice.

With this balanced foundation, students become confident individuals who think for themselves while caring for each other and the world around them.
