Head of School Welcome

WHAT WILL YOU FIND AT SANFORD?

At Sanford, what truly sets us apart is how every student is seen, supported, and celebrated. This unwavering focus on the individual makes our school so special, and that's why I’m honored to serve as Head of School.

Here, we believe that when students are known and valued for who they are, they’re empowered to grow, not just as learners, but as leaders, creators, athletes, and engaged community members.

Beyond our 100% college acceptance rate, our close-knit learning environment with small class sizes, and our demanding yet innovative academics, Sanford is truly a place to be yourself, express yourself, and challenge yourself.

Our safe community is made up of happy, healthy achievers who live by our Honor Code and champion each other’s successes.
Our outstanding college-preparatory curriculum and stellar faculty challenge students to broaden their ambitions, take risks, set higher standards, and develop lifelong habits for achievement.
Our award-winning arts and strong athletics programs empower students to tap into their talents and boldly pursue their own excellence with no fear of judgment.
Our stunning, college-like campus offers the ultimate physical space for learning, both in and out of the classroom, while fostering self-reliance and independence.

At Sanford, we don’t just say “No Talent Lies Latent,” we live it each and every day.

That’s why our students, teachers, and alumni accomplish extraordinary things, including:

As one student shared, “Sanford isn’t just a school. It’s a community where you feel like you’ve always belonged.”

Just as Sanford shaped my journey, I hope it can be part of yours too.

Warmly

Jaime L. Morgan ’02
