My daughter had an amazing experience at The Field School. She started in 7th grade after attending a very strict, traditional school 4th-6th. She really thrived at Field where they focused on her strengths and she was able to thrive and grow into a campus leader.

Field is an amazing school! The teachers are so supportive and understanding of your individual situations and work closely with you in order to improve yourself. I spent 7 years here and of course there is room to improve the school but I could not imagine going anywhere other than Field.

The Field School offers the best of education - small class sizes with teachers who love teaching and provide children with thought provoking topics of study.
