Governor Josh Shapiro Recognizes United Friends School

We are proud to share that United Friends School received a formal letter of recognition from Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, honoring our school’s contributions to the Commonwealth.

​

In his letter, Governor Shapiro highlights UFS’s deep commitment to creating a caring, inclusive community where students are supported in becoming independent, confident, and compassionate individuals. He commends our dedication to the values of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality, and stewardship—values that have been the foundation of Quaker education for generations.

​

Governor Shapiro writes:

​

“I applaud the dedicated staff for encouraging each child to reach their full potential and develop into an independent, confident, and altruistic individual. I am sure this school will continue to have a positive impact on the Commonwealth for years to come.”

​

We are honored by this recognition and grateful to our entire school community for making United Friends School a place where these values are lived every day.
