Academics
Departments and Classes
An immersive and inspiring education that prepares you for anything.
The accelerating pace of change makes it hard to predict the future, so we let real-world events lead deep learning so students see the relevance and urgency of every assignment.
Our Early Childhood students learn through play and wondering about the world, while Lower School students explore academic subjects and build skills around exciting, engaging themes like Wabenaki culture and immigration and industrialization. Middle School students begin to master more complex subjects and take greater responsibility for their progress in classrooms designed to let them move around and speak their minds. And our Upper School students spend their school days evaluating mRNA efficacy by analyzing COVID-19 data, exploring feminism in Islam, discussing democracy with world leaders, and much more.
