At º£½ÇÊÓƵ, collaboration and creativity extend beyond the school day. In the evenings and on weekends, you might find yourself working in the maker space, biking to Walden Pond, or catching the commuter rail into Boston. Spending time with friends has never been so enriching.

º£½ÇÊÓƵ draws self-motivated, academically adventurous young people. Amid so many choices, we provide support to help students adjust to a rigorous high school experience, make the most of extracurricular opportunities, and prepare for college.
Our academic program provides a runway for success, reducing pressure around grades for 9th grade students. By the time º£½ÇÊÓƵ students are seniors, they’ve grown into leadership positions across the school and become co-heads of the clubs and student organizations they cherish. In their chapel talks they’re ready to pay it forward, offering advice for younger students.
Our community is built on close relationships, so we do things a little differently. We’re informal. There’s no dress code, and we call teachers by their first names. Our open campus, which features a whereabouts system for both day and boarding students, cultivates independence and accountability. We prioritize wellness by starting our days a little later than other schools while having plenty of time for afternoon, evening, and weekend activities.
Honoring each individual is the foundation of our community, so school spirit at º£½ÇÊÓƵ looks a little different from other schools. There’s no pressure for everyone to attend a pep rally, dress alike, or be into the same activities. Our commonalities are creativity, kindness, and a drive to better understand ourselves and the world. Student trips, campus cultural events, and occasional Spirit Weeks and Community Weekends offer both flexibility and fun while bringing us together. Show up as yourself, and you’ll fit right in.
Ask a dozen º£½ÇÊÓƵ students what common trust means to them and you might get a dozen different answers. It isn’t easy to define, but you’ll recognize it when you see it. It’s being able to leave your backpack in the hallway knowing it will be there when you come back. It’s the freedom students have in our open campus to walk to a coffee shop during a free period. It’s the 15 minutes each senior is given to address the whole school in their own words. And, yes, sometimes it’s taking chances and making mistakes—learning and growing, together.
