Welcome
The most decisive moments occur behind the scenes: crafting the outline that defines the paper, running drill after drill just before a big game, finding your character’s motivation before stepping out on stage. These moments are at the heart of a Shipley education.

College Matriculation
At Shipley, the college search involves much more than getting into the “right” college. Here, the emphasis is on choosing a college that is the right fit for the individual.

Redefining Educational Excellence
The Shipley School is redefining private school education by putting individual and collective well-being - along with student achievement - at the center of educational excellence. The School's approach focuses on maximizing students' potential through innovative approaches to teaching and curriculum that prioritize collaboration, process, critical thinking, creativity, global citizenship, curiosity, empathy, and authenticity. With virtually endless opportunities for leadership and participation in athletics, the arts, and other extracurricular activities, Shipley students are encouraged to take risks in a supportive environment. Ultimately, Shipley is educating students to develop the character, capabilities, and beliefs that will shape a better world.
The Shipley School is a private, coeducational day school for pre-kindergarten through 12th grade students, located in Bryn Mawr, PA. Through our commitment to educational excellence, we develop within each student a love of learning and a desire for compassionate participation in the world.
