At The College School, we believe in the transformative power of experiential learning.
With a commitment to academic excellence and outdoor education, we foster a vibrant community where students don’t just acquire knowledge—they apply it, developing the resilience and adaptability to thrive in an ever-evolving global landscape.
Through authentic experiences, students stretch their thinking, strengthen their character, and gain the confidence to take risks and use their voices. In our close-knit community, every day offers a chance to grow stronger, braver, and more determined.
“TCS has far exceeded my expectations in providing an education for my children. While there are more hands-on, experiential learning opportunities, it’s the way my children are taught to view the world that leaves the deepest impression. My children have learned more than just academics. They’ve learned life skills that they’ll carry with them well into adulthood.”

The chicks came out to play! 🐥
As part of their Bird Theme, First Grade students spent time with the five chicks hatched earlier this week. Students observed and gently interacted, noticing how quickly they`ve grown. It didn’t take long for personalities to emerge as the chicks explored their new world, much to the delight of their biggest fans.
Congratulations to our Second and Third Grade LEGO FIRST Robotics teams, who celebrated the end of their season by presenting their archeological-themed builds at a joyful after-school festival. Their impressive builds include a windmill, a complex trap door, and some incredibly detailed elements. #EverythingIsAwesome
Who knew lettuce could bring so much joy?
Today, the Kindergarten class joined Lauren, Early Childhood and Greenhouse teacher, and John, Director of Sustainability, for a Salad Party celebrating lettuce and other tasty produce! Taking on the roles of farmers and chefs, students went from carefully harvesting fresh bok choy, oak leaf lettuce, tokyo bekana cabbage, and herbs like onions and parsley from our gardens to chopping vegetables like radishes and carrots, and creating a delicious balsamic vinaigrette from scratch. Others designed menus and helped serve each table, which was beautifully set with fresh flowers.
When children are part of the process, they’re more curious, adventurous, and willing to take that first (and second!) bite.
