Dear Families, 

Thank you for taking the time to explore Community School. Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most meaningful decisions you will make, and we are honored you are considering us.

Families are drawn to the warmth of our secluded campus and the nurturing environment our teachers bring to every classroom. With at least two full-time teachers in every classroom plus learning and math specialists, your child will be known, seen, and supported every step of the way.

Our inquiry-driven curriculum gives students all the tools of exploration: mathematics and the sciences; social studies; literature; creative and expository writing; drawing, performance, and the rest of the arts; and an understanding of history and technology. Year after year, our achievement test scores rank among the highest in the nation. Learn about our approach.

At Community, who your child becomes matters just as much as what they learn. Teachers join students for family-style meals, giving children the chance to grow comfortable and confident in the presence of adults. Our emphasis on public speaking and performance helps every student find their voice and articulate complex ideas with courage.

Our students are responsible, caring, and vibrant people who learn how to work with and lead others in an environment that celebrates diversity and promotes inclusion. Every child graduates with the skills and eagerness to thrive in secondary school and beyond.

My team and I would love to get to know your family. We are here to guide you through the process of finding the right place for your child to grow and thrive in their preschool and elementary school education. Please submit an inquiry or reach out directly -- we would be happy to set up a time to connect.

Sincerely,

Shernina Nichols
