School History
Overview
The San Miguel School, a Lasallian School, exists first and foremost to offer a quality education to those in need.
Priority is given to boys from challenging circumstances who are in need of extra support to be able to attend to the tasks involved in learning.
The San Miguel School is a middle school where the focus is on the positive.
In a structured and caring environment, each "Miguel Man" is encouraged to learn, to serve and to grow to the best of his ability.
Moses Brown School is a Friends school, offering a co-ed, Quaker-based education to students in nursery through grade 12. We have a proven tradition of academic excellence, a commitment to great teaching, and a dedication to fostering character and confidence in young people. Our stunning 33-acre campus-formerly the farm of 18th-century Quaker abolitionist leader Moses Brown-provides expansive academic, athletic, and artistic facilities right in the heart of Providence.
