The Geronimo Program is multidimensional — combining a strong curricular component and cultural immersion with the development of skills in sailing, leadership and teamwork. You could sail to the Bahamas or explore European culture on a voyage through the Mediterranean in a weeks-long journey aboard our 70-foot cutter.

Established in 1959 as a way of boosting school spirit, the Pie Race has been called “one of St. George’s warmest and wackiest traditions.” Over the years students, many in elaborate costumes, have sprinted, unicycled, and leap-frogged around a 1.1-mile course around campus each fall in an effort to win one of dozens of homemade apple pies.

OK, not all of our dormitories overlook the beach, but the stunning view down to the ocean is never far away. It’s right there every time you walk across the front lawn, enter one of state-of-the-art science labs in the Academic Center or head down the Main Drive.

Thanks to our alumni network, the Dragons in Hollywood Program gives students an insider look at life in the entertainment industry, like an executive VIP tour of Paramount Studios.

A good latte or bubble tea is within walking distance, as are shops and restaurants. Or take a ride in the Dragon Wagon shuttle that rolls every weekend.

Built in 1928 and adorned with dozens of intricate stained-glass windows, our chapel is both meditative and awe-inspiring. The chapel tower is 145 feet tall and when you climb to the top, you are at the highest point on Aquidneck Island.

Arguably St. George’s most beloved tradition, the Christmas Festival combines a chapel service with costumed characters enacting the birth of Jesus with a fancy all-school dinner in King Hall the night before Winter Break.
