1950

Founded and Led by Mrs. Ouida McWhorter, Advent Episcopal School began in the basement of the Cathedral Church of the Advent with a small group of seven students. Committed to providing an exceptional education in a Christian environment, our small school in the heart of downtown Birmingham was born. Over the next 18 years, the school would grow with the needs of the community and through the faithfulness of Mrs. McWhorter and members of the church.
