Plymouth Meeting Friends School | A Quaker Education

Where Wonder

Meets Wisdom

We provide a creative and challenging academic program supported by the Quaker belief that there is that of God in everyone. From age 3 through 6th grade, PMFS builds and affirms a community grounded in cultural competency and social responsibility.

Quaker
Our core values of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality, and stewardship (SPICES) are woven into the educational and cultural fabric of who we are and what we do.
Elementary
Students collaborate with peers and teachers, using inquiry and reflection to solidify understanding and prepare them for success as lifelong learners.
Global Citizenship
Our interdisciplinary curriculum encourages students to explore their world as members of an ever expanding circle of communities.
Social Responsibility
Students develop a solid sense of self and social responsibility through connecting and communicating with others, and persevering to solve problems and resolve conflict collaboratively.
