Welcome to Priory!
We are excited that your school search has led you to us. Founded in 1957, Woodside Priory School serves students from grades 6 through 12 and houses Silicon Valley’s only boarding school. At the Priory, we assist all students in creating meaningful and balanced lives, developing as lifelong learners and stewards, and productively serving a world in need of their gifts. Surrounded by the hustle and bustle of the innovative Valley, our students attend–and sometimes reside on–a campus that fosters a sense of meaning and balance. The journey to the Priory begins with our admission process and depending on when you are seeking to join us, we look forward to helping you see whether the Priory is the right fit for you as a middle school student, high school day student, or student in our boarding program.
The search for a school is one of the most meaningful activities we manage as parents, guardians, and young people alike. We certainly hope that the collection of our online materials and future conversations will clarify why Priory may be a strong fit for you. My colleagues and I look forward to welcoming you to the Priory!
Warmly,
