St. Luke’s mission is an exceptional education that inspires a deep love of learning, a strong moral compass, the commitment to serve, and the confidence to lead. Our Leading with Humanity curriculum emphasizes the development of moral character alongside leadership skills, fostering the ability to lead, collaborate, and empathize with others.
Leading with Humanity courses are designed to spiral, ensuring that each year's learning builds upon prior knowledge. This gradual process steadily enhances students' leadership capabilities. Beginning in Middle School, students identify strengths and interests, dedicating efforts to enhance their school community. Progressing to Upper School, their perspectives broaden, recognizing their capacity to positively impact the wider world. By the time students graduate, the Confidence to Lead with Humanity has become an intrinsic part of who they are.
St. Luke's leadership education is enriched by four essential areas of focus—Compass, Equity & Inclusion, Global, and Service.

Signature leadership experiences connect students with powerhouses from diverse fields including business, arts, and philanthropy. In one student's words: "This was like the real world."
