WELCOME

For 175 years, FFS has served an important role as a cornerstone of a sometimes threatened urban community in Northeast Philadelphia. The school provides middle-class families with an alternative to public education and helps to keep them in the neighborhood, while offering an option to lower-income families who might otherwise have none.

FFS is distinguished for its tradition of racial diversity and for its modest tuition. At FFS, urban youth of all ethnic, economic, racial, and religious backgrounds benefit from a high-quality Quaker education without leaving their community.

Stable tuition rates and scholarship programs help make FFS affordable to all. Even with one of the lowest tuition rates of any private school in the area, and of any Friends School in Pennsylvania, over one in four students receive financial aid assistance.

FFS graduates, many on scholarship, go on to attend the most prominent public and private high schools in the area. Your gift to Frankford Friends School will help us continue this tradition of inclusion.
