History
| The Webb School was founded in 1870 by Williarm R. "Sawney" Webb. His goal was to build moral character, make ladies and gentlemen of his students, and prepare them for any challenge that may come their way. This has been accomplished for over 140 years through a solid liberal arts education, a strong sense of honor, and an interactive school community. The Webb School has produced 10 Rhodes Scholars and its graduates have gone on to attend prestigious colleges and universities across the nation and to lead important, successful and fulfilling lives in business, education, politics and the arts. It is our intention to keep this tradition alive by providing a sound education combined with high moral values. |
