Founded in 1957, Cathedral School for Boys is an independent, Episcopal school serving boys in kindergarten through eighth grade in San Francisco’s Nob Hill neighborhood. Guided by its mission to cultivate exemplary young men who are scholars and leaders of strong moral character, Cathedral combines academic rigor and intellectual inquiry with an emphasis on community, integrity, and service to others. In an intentionally small and supportive learning environment, the school nurtures each student’s intellectual, social, emotional, and moral development, preparing graduates to lead with confidence, compassion, and a commitment to making a positive difference in the world.
