Because developing the curiosity to explore brings ideas to life.
As they grow, students develop their skills in critical thinking, and oral and written expression, but not at the expense of cultivating intuition, imagination and creativity - and remembering what it means to be a child.
Because questioning the answer is as important as answering the question.
Mead students develop the curiosity to explore, the courage to question, and the knowledge and skills that fully prepare them for today’s world.
Because a close relationship builds independence.
Teachers inspire children to explore subjects in fresh ways, to push themselves to excel. They challenge children to be creative, independent thinkers - ready for the next step in education and beyond.
Because academic success is just one small piece of the puzzle.
Cross-curricular, experiential learning is the norm, allowing learners to cultivate teamwork and collaboration skills and develop their intuition, imagination and creativity.
Because every child writes his own story.
Every challenge in life is as unique as the individual. That’s why at Mead we nurture children’s confidence, intellect and independence – the tools they’ll need to succeed at every stage of their lives.
Because a child's strongest advocate is herself.
By working closely and collaboratively with our students, we're able to help them achieve the most out of every experience. They build the confidence they need to reach their full potential.

FALL 2020 REOPENING COMMITTEE
The Mead School has established a Reopening Committee to develop a 20/21 re-entry strategy that allows for flexibility, transparency, and prioritizes the health and safety of our community. We are preparing the physical campus to support returning K-8 students starting on the first day of school, 8/31/20. Our ELC has successfully remained open during this time, and we looking forward to welcoming the ELC community back for the start of our 20/21 year on 9/8/20.
