Founded in 1961 by S. Brook Moore, Sandy Spring Friends School is located on a 140-acre wooded campus in the historic Quaker community of Sandy Spring, in the heart of Montgomery County, Maryland.

Sandy Spring Friends School prepares its students for college, to enjoy learning throughout life, and to become useful, constructive, and caring citizens of the world. Its mission is most clearly stated in words taken from George Fox, the founder of the Society of Friends: “Let Your Lives Speak.”
