The Friends School of Minnesota (FSMN) is a Kindergarten through Eighth Grade (K-8) independent school located in Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States. Founded in 1988 by area Quakers and peace activists, the goal of the school is to meet "children’s intellectual, emotional and spiritual needs in an environment that nurtures their social consciousness."〔http://www.fsmn.org/about Friends School of Minnesota Website〕 FSMN is fully accredited through the (Independent Schools Association of the Central States )〔http://www.isacs.org/schools ISACS school search for accredited Quaker schools in Minnesota〕〔Letter of accreditation 2009 on file at ISACS〕 ==Philosophy== Like the many other Quaker schools in the United States, FSMN is "grounded in the practices and values of the Religious Society of Friends" (Quakers). Among these values are "simplicity, equality, non-violence, justice, and silent reflection.".〔https://www.fsmn.org/about/our-approach FSMN Educational Philosophy〕 To cultivate these values and to promote and encourage the spiritual, social, emotional, and physical development of the children, the school employs many of the tenets of progressive education—recognizing the need for children to play a part in their own education. This approach also fits with the Quaker belief that each person is granted a measure of "divine light" or wisdom, a center from which we are able to grow into our fullest potential.〔〔http://www.quakerinfo.org/quakerism/beliefs.html Quaker Information Center: Quaker Beliefs〕
