Mastery at Mead

mas·ter·y   /ˈmast(ə)rē/  n.:  possession of great skill, knowledge, or technique

At The Mead School, our definition of mastery goes far deeper than subject matter knowledge.  

We focus on actively strengthening the attributes that empower students to achieve a future with meaning and excellence.

Mead nurtures students who are...

Creative

Creativity is the soul of Mead – from our challenging curriculum, to our unique schedule, everything we do nurtures creative thinking.

 

More

Curious

We believe that endless curiosity is a virtue, and that questioning the answer is as important as answering the question.

 

More

 

Collaborative

With a project-based curriculum, our students work, play, explore, and reflect together, making collaboration a curricular constant.

 

More

Courageous

Mead champions childhood for children, and nurtures resilience with opportunities to embrace challenge and take risks.

Caring

Mead students care deeply about their friends, community, and planet, and have many opportunities to focus that caring into action.

Centered

Our grads often cite the strong sense of self they developed at Mead as a secret superpower, allowing them to thrive in any situation.
