Student Life

Watercolor: campus life

The hours after the last bell — practice, rehearsal, the club that meets in a borrowed room — are where a Saint Stephen’s education does half its work. Most students don’t pick one lane. They do several.

Athletics

We believe some of life’s greatest lessons are learned through participation in team sports. Athletics have been an integral part of SSES since the school’s founding, and 20 teams have won state championships — the first in 1981 and the most recent in 2022.

The Arts

Where every student discovers their voice — on canvas, on stage, and in the ensemble.

Campus Dining

Students may bring a lunch from home or pre-order a meal through EZSchoolLunch, the school’s online lunch-order program, accessed through SSESonline. Orders draw on meals sourced from local restaurants and must be placed by 8 a.m. the prior working day.

The lunchroom is run by parent volunteers and does not accept cash; families keep a lunch account instead. If a student forgets a lunch, one is provided and charged to their account.
