Nestled in the heart of downtown Birmingham since 1950, Advent Episcopal School has a decades-long legacy in providing an unmatched foundation for academic success. At Advent, we firmly believe that the Junior Pre-K through grade 8 years form the bedrock of a child’slife — a foundation upon which they will continually build into high school, college and beyond. We take our responsibility seriously, and our commitment to fostering a high level of academic rigor is unwavering.
Our early childhood programs create the perfect nurturing space for our youngest learners to delve into in-depth basic skills, explore, observe and unleash their creativity. We believe that every child deserves the freedom to flourish, and that’s exactly what they get at Advent.
As students progress through our school, we offer them a vast array of opportunities to broaden their perspectives. From foreign languages to the arts, science to physical education, each Advent student is exposed to a holistic educational experience.
Our commitment to academic rigor is complemented by the value we place on sports and physical activity. Cross country, basketball, soccer, volleyball and cheerleading offer opportunities for healthy competition and teamwork.
Choosing Advent means joining a vibrant and supportive community that feels like home. With smaller class sizes, consistent communication, ample parent involvement opportunities and an inclusive atmosphere, every child experiences a true sense of belonging. Our teachers and staff provide individual attention and support, ensuring that each child thrives academically and emotionally.
We understand that choosing the right educational path for your child can be daunting, but we’re here to ease your journey. Reach out to us for any questions, to schedule a campus tour, or to gather more information.
