St. Christopher's School meets boys where they are. We have two sons who have been at STC since kindergarten. The teachers know our boys so well. They make it possible for students to succeed. The coaches encourage the boys to do their best. Our youngest was not very athletic when he was little and thanks to the great coaches he has made great strives. The school considers their students as part of their family. The teachers make an effort to know each student well.

St. Chris has a great sense on community. With a small class size, students are able to bond and become closer. In addition, the faculty constantly works with students to help them succeed.

Truly one of the Best Private schools in Virginia. My son was so prepared for one of the nation’s top universities. Leadership, faculty and staff are all dedicated professionals. My son and our family have so many wonderful memories.

As a parent, St. Chris undoubtedly caters to students who thrive in a highly structured, competitive environment. There is a distinct "alpha male" culture that permeates not only the student body but also in faculty and administration. This culture emphasizes traditional notions of masculinity, comp...

I am unsure of many of the reviews below. Yes, bullying exists, as it does at every high school in the country. Still, it is not prevalent and extremely rarely results in anything physical (Only two instances I know of over 11 years as a student). Yes, there is a lot of homework and studying require...
