welcome

Thank you for your interest in Summers-Knoll School!

We are a warm, connected, intentionally small school where each child is known and loved, and the educational development of our student community is supported in multi-faceted ways. Our students are rapid learners and creative thinkers. They are intellectually curious and eager to explore.

What motivates a child to do well? How can we help our children become the best that they can be, intellectually, socially, emotionally, physically, personally? How can they acquire the skills to learn smarter and live better?

The answer lies in developing:

• Independence- allowing the child to take responsibility for her own learning
• Academic mastery - honing the skills that he needs to go further, learn more deeply, create new things
• Authentic purpose - understanding that what she learns is meaningful, relevant and applicable to her life

At Summers-Knoll, we offer an atmosphere of true learning. We foster the insatiable curiosity that helps our children grow to new awareness and understanding as they develop the ability to think deeply, flexibly and creatively, and to make connections across disciplines. Our children explore their beliefs, build the courage to act on them, and discover passion in knowledge, skill and service.

Enjoy your tour through the web site, and I welcome you to set up a time to visit our school. We would love to discuss our programs and your child's future with you.

Warm regards,

Joanna Hastings
Head of School
