a legacy built on of saints years
Saints are taught and encouraged to become the best versions of themselves so they can transform the world. This philosophy continues to evolve and grow from a foundation that has been built by our students, leadership, and community.
The Class of 2026 closes a 75-year chapter at the School. They are a class built on 75 years of fostering academic excellence, cultivating community belonging, inspiring creativity, championing athletic growth, and promoting service learning. Take a closer look at a few Saints who have contributed to this legacy, and senior accomplishments that will leave an impact on our community for the next 75 years.
LIAM FINLEY
All Saints’ has shaped me academically by providing me with a platform to challenge myself. I’ve been afforded the autonomy and grace to build rigorous academic schedules from a diverse curriculum, while also being encouraged to grow through subjects outside my comfort zone. The high standards for academic work, combined with the attentiveness of knowledgeable teachers, has set me up to be a better learner.
In my next chapter, I know the academic expectations and student agency I developed at All Saints’ will let me control my future.

In Upper School, it became increasingly evident to me that everyone at All Saints’ is here to help you. Teachers, faculty, administrators, and students are supportive, kind, and generous. I have always felt encouraged by the people at All Saints’. Without the community, I would not have experienced life-changing opportunities that have helped me grow into the person I am today.
The School has given me connections, resources, and opportunities that I am excited to take into life outside of All Saints’.
