A Steward education is about more than memorizing facts—we recognize that in the 21st century, facts are as easy to come by as a Google search. Our students not only gain knowledge, but they also learn to apply that knowledge, to create and innovate with it. This environment helps shape today’s students into the type of leaders our world will need in the future.

Interscholastic athletics: 43 teams in 12 sports (grades 6-12) OVERVIEW The Steward School, which serves boys and girls in junior kindergarten through grade 12, is both a rigorous academic environment and a place for boundless imagination. With a college-preparatory curriculum, small classes, myriad extracurricular offerings, and an in-school tutoring program, Steward celebrates each student’s individual interests in academics, athletics, fine arts, community service, and clubs. Steward strives to empower its students to solve problems, take initiative, and become their own best selves. Perhaps this is expressed most directly through the school’s tagline: Fuel the mind. Stir the imagination. Unleash the possibilities. Diversity is an integral part of what makes Steward a dynamic, vibrant place to teach and learn. At Steward, all are welcomed, respected, and valued. This is the way Steward community members want to lead their lives on and off campus, and, by doing so, the community has cleaved to a philosophy that allows its children and adults to lead impactful lives. Steward is seeking a new Director of Admissions (DOA) who understands the beauty of a student’s imagination, the inherent value in small classes and care for each student, and the importance of a community that embraces diversity as one of its greatest assets.

  • A Study of the Curriculum and the Curriculum Development Program of the Stewart Junior High School at the University of Utah
    A STUDY OF THE CURRICULUM AND THE CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM OF THE STEWART JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State U n iv e rsity by E arl W illiam s Haimei; J r . , B.A. M.S. The Ohio State University 1958 Approved by: p7 Adviser T j lollege of Education PREFACE During the school years of 19%3-Sk and 195U-?!j I was a member of one of the most restricted groups in American society—a junior high school faculty. As a faculty we behaved rather conventionally; we worked, studied, and played together; and we argued, competed, even fought with each other. A number of worth-while things—projects, friendships, research studies, attitudes, teaching methods—were developed and shared by the Stewart staff. This study is a record and an evaluation of one of the staff’s more ambitious efforts at action research. There can be no hierarchy of credits, although much credit is due, in expressing appreciation for contributions to this study. The staff of the Stewart School gave generously of their time and talents, and the school’s principal, Dr. Avard A. Rigby, was particulaiiy helpful and encouraging. A special accolade is given to Professor Hugh D. Laughlin, who directed the study. "Directing the study" included helping me to assume the role of an objective investigator rather than a Stewart staff member. Dr. Laughlin is my teacher—guide, critic, and friend. Wives traditionally operate to the advantage of doctoral candi­ dates; mine was no exception.
