Site Description

Sandy Spring was founded in 1961 when a local man of the town of Sandy Spring, Brook Moore, came up with the idea at a meeting and it grew interest. The school was started on a family farm and started as an Upper School. It expanded into a Middle School in 1980 and moved onto the campus in Sandy Spring in 1984. Elementary School was added in 1991 and finally a pre-k was added in 1992, expanding it from only Upper School to now suit students from Pre-K to 12th grade.
