We believe that uniforms celebrate equity and inclusion. Everyone wears the same clothing, not out of nostalgia but out of the belief that our dress code demonstrates a sense of purpose and diminishes displays of socioeconomic status that run counter to our philosophy. The Cathedral School uniform is also about tradition. The boys wear nearly the same uniform that their predecessors wore 60 years ago when the school was founded, forging a connection between every boy who has attended the school.
Cathedral School for Boys has deliberately remained a small school. With the intimacy of a small school of 264 boys, we are able to know each boy well.
The Episcopal approach provides experiences that offer students an understanding of religion and faith, in addition to a lens through which to view the world.
We understand boys. We know that there are many ways to be a boy, and we approach each boy individually. We appreciate that each boy learns differently and at his own pace.
Located in San Francisco, California, Cathedral School for Boys is an independent elementary school for boys in Kindergarten – Grade 8. Our mission is to provide an excellent education through intellectual inquiry and rigor that is centered in the Episcopal tradition and is respectful of and welcoming to people of all religious traditions and beliefs.
