Admissions Philosophy
Friends School of Minnesota seeks to enroll students and families who will contribute to and benefit from our progressive Quaker educational program and community. Students and families who are a good fit in terms of FSMN’s academics, philosophy, and core values are considered for admission. We base admissions decisions on composing a well-balanced, diverse group of children, who, in FSMN’s view, will learn well with and from one another.
Friends School of Minnesota seeks diversity in every aspect of the school community. Friends School does not discriminate on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, race, color, religion, and national or ethnic origin in its admissions policies, hiring practices or in the administration of its personnel policies.
At the moment we are still accepting applications for openings in our 23-24: K, 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 8th grades. Limited tuition aid is still available at some grade levels.
If you are looking for another grade level, it never hurts to give us a call for the most up to date information about possible openings.
