The Upper School Chapel/Performing Arts Center was dedicated in 2003. The auditorium provides comfortable seating for the entire Upper School community to gather together for assemblies, chapel, award presentations, Stage One Players productions, and other special events. The building also houses several performance arts classrooms, a contemplative prayer room, and a beautiful stained glass window that spans the back wall of the stage.
Kelleher Field is a turf field located just outside Goodwin Gymnasium. The field was dedicated in 2006 in memory of three-sport student athlete Matthew Kelleher ’98.
The Upper School main building contains a plethora of academic facilities including art studios, science, computer, math, and language labs, the Wills Library and reading room, black box theater, the College Counseling Office, a large dining hall, and a school store. The main building was dedicated in 1957 (though it has grown since then) and was named in honor of The Rev. Edward E. Tate.
Goodwin Gymnasium contains a large gym, locker rooms, fitness center, training room, and a wrestling room that converts to an indoor batting cage. The gym is home to our Sleepy Thompson Basketball Tournament, Upper School pep rallies, and the all-school Thanksgiving service, among other events. The gymnasium was dedicated in honor of The Rt. Rev. Frederick D. Goodwin, Bishop, Diocese of Virginia, and President of the Church Schools in the Diocese of Virginia in 1957.
Saints football, lacrosse, and field hockey games, Homecoming and Reunion halftime celebrations, movie nights, as well as Commencement and Eighth Grade Recognition take place on Moss Field. In 1958 the football field was dedicated in honor of Dr. Fred A. Moss, who sold the land to the Church Schools in the Diocese of Virginia to build the St. Stephen’s campus, which is now our Upper School campus.
This outdoor six lane, 400-meter all-weather track is home to Saints track meets and the annual Draper Track Invitational. In 1981, the track field was renovated and named for General Phillip Draper.

Softball Field
In 1993 the baseball field was renovated and named “Thompson Field” in honor of Albert L. Thompson, Sr., former groundskeeper for St. Stephen’s, and Albert L. “Sleepy” Thompson, Jr. former coach and athletic director for St. Stephen’s. Thompson Field encompasses the baseball field and the side field which is used for soccer training and competitions, as well as school events such as Fun Friday, the Welcome Back party, and Saints Spirit Day. The grandstand was renovation in 2025; new features include new bullpens, bleachers, and fencing.
The new Upper School space opened in Fall 2024, providing redesigned art and science classrooms, a new dining hall, and a student commons in the center of it all. The new space offers a beautiful, inviting environment for students to learn, study, eat, and hang out with each other.
