St. George's School (nicknamed S.G.) is a private, Episcopal, co-educational day and boarding school in Middletown, Rhode Island, a suburb of Newport. The school is built on a hill overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
St. George's (originally Diman's School for Small Boys or Mr. Diman's School for Boys) was founded in 1896 by Episcopal minister John Diman. At the time, Rhode Island did not have tax-funded high schools; the state would not require towns to maintain a public high school until 1909. The school initially leased temporary grounds in Newport, but moved across the bay to a permanent campus in Middletown in 1901. The school was initially set up as a for-profit corporation, but became a non-profit corporation in 1903.
Diman modeled his school after the English public schools. He implemented the prefect system and organized the school into six grades, called Forms I-VI in the British fashion. The First and Second Forms were later discontinued in 1930 and 1966.
In 1916, Diman resigned from St. George's; he formally converted to Catholicism the following year. After a spell at Fort Augustus Abbey in Scotland, he returned to Rhode Island and established Portsmouth Abbey School, a Benedictine institution, in 1926.
The school began admitting black students in 1963, female day students in 1971, and female boarders in 1972. In 1987, girls outnumbered boys in the graduating class for the first time.
In the current century, St. George's has focused on redeveloping and renovating its campus. The library was renovated in 2011. A new STEM facility opened in 2015. Memorial Schoolhouse was renovated in 2019–20. The school is currently raising money to grow the endowment, expand student dormitories, and add new faculty housing.
In the 2023–24 school year, St. George's educated 377 students in grades 9–12. 85% of students were boarders. 33% identified as students of color, and 32% received financial aid. 15% of the students were international.
In the 2023–24 school year, St. George's charged boarding students $73,850 and day students $51,275. 32% of St. George's students are on financial aid, which covers, on average, $58,000 for boarders.
In its Internal Revenue Service filings for the 2021–22 school year, St. George's reported total assets of $310.7 million, net assets of $247.4 million, investment holdings of $208.2 million, and cash holdings of $6.7 million. St. George's also reported $32.1 million in program service expenses and $5.6 million in grants (primarily student financial aid).
St. George's campus covers 125 acres in southern Rhode Island, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The campus was laid out by the Olmsted Brothers architectural firm. In 2004, the school's core buildings were added to the National Register of Historic Places. In 2018, Architectural Digest named St. George's the most beautiful private high school campus in Rhode Island.
St. George's students refer to the campus as "The Hilltop," as it is located on a hill just east of Newport. Outside Middletown, the school is occasionally nicknamed "St. Gorgeous" due to the school's picturesque location (and other factors).
