Moving Forward, Together
We ask that you join us, envisioning our great school becoming even better with:
A teaching philosophy all constituents understand, articulate, and experience every day: Town’s educational approach even more clearly defined, practiced, and communicated.
Faculty as lifelong learners, continuing to hone their craft through a program of on-site and outside professional development throughout their career.
A national reputation as a lab for teacher learning and exceptional professional development.
Students who are fully served across the program, reaching their outstanding potential as learners and community members.
A clearly-stated and consistently-lived commitment to equity, inclusion, and anti-racism, resulting in strengthened voices, wider perspectives, and empowerment across all constituencies.
An expansive and creative reimagining of where, how, and when learning takes place, with a specific emphasis on civic engagement and city-wide partnerships.
Strong enrollment reflecting the diverse make-up and locations of our city.
A financially secure foundation to ensure our mission-centered goals come to life, and that current and future students may benefit from the power of a Nursery through Eighth grade, co-educational, student-centered, joyful education.
