Harford Friends School brings to the community a unique educational program promoting academic excellence by developing the intellectual, spiritual, moral, physical and aesthetic aspects of each individual student.

The school is characterized by the Quaker belief of "that of God in everyone" manifesting itself through the principles of truth, peaceful resolution of conflict, simplicity, respect, integrity, and community. The school provides a nurturing and enabling environment in which students exercise their many talents as they learn through discovery and direct instruction. We believe that by finding and developing the good in every child, each may find the paths to becoming a person who strengthens self, the community and the world.
