St. Paul’s School for Boys is pleased to announce an opening for a Varsity Ice Hockey Coach for the
2020-2021 school year.
School Overview
The St. Paul’s Schools is a family of independent schools located in Brooklandville, Maryland. With
more than 1,400 students from ages 6 months to grade 12, St. Paul’s Pre and Lower School (coed),
St. Paul’s School for Girls, and St. Paul’s School for Boys share a 120-acre campus, an Episcopal
affiliation, and a focus on developing confident, well balanced students who will use their education
and ethics to improve the world. In July 2018, the schools unified under the umbrella of The St.
Paul’s Schools, with a single board of trustees and one president, but each school retains its
individual traditions and its gender-specific programs. A coordinated structure allows The
St. Paul’s Schools to preserve the small-school feel within each school while sharing resources and
certain programs to maximize opportunities for students. With St. Paul’s unique model, boys
and girls are taught together and separately at just the right times in their development.
St. Paul’s School for Boys, founded in 1849, is a college-preparatory day school serving boys in grades
5 through 12. The school’s mission, “Seek truth, knowledge, and excellence; live by faith,
compassion, and integrity,” is the daily standard for all members of our community. St. Paul’s School
for Boys’ students are thoughtful young men who thrive in an educational community that
emphasizes strong relationships, personal growth, and the collective pursuit of integrity.
