The Crefeld School's mission is to graduate self-aware, empathetic, lifelong learners, who possess an appreciation for diverse perspectives, their role in society, and their ability to act as agents of change. Serving students in grades 7 through 12 in a gender inclusive setting, Crefeld provides an intentionally different college preparatory program to help students become their best selves.

Located in the beautiful Chestnut Hill neighborhood of Philadelphia, Crefeld's campus is conveniently located just blocks from a picturesque, robust shopping and dining area, as well as two train lines that connect visitors directly to Center City (downtown) Philadelphia and the Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). 

We recommend out of town guests book accommodations at the Chestnut Hill Hotel, within walking distance of The Crefeld School, or seek out one of the many Airbnb rentals available in the neighborhood.
