Fayerweather is a warm and welcoming place for all people. I've found that my kindergartener is uniquely seen and understood in his classroom environment. Teachers have gone out of their way to make his learning meaningful and applicable to the real world. He comes home singing songs, telling me about the animals that he observed outside, and talking naturally with me about topics such as friendship and social equity.

As a parent, Fayerweather was the perfect place for my child to thrive (started in Grade 3, now in Middle School). They feel comfortable, are excited to go to school each day and have a community where they feel a strong sense of belonging. The community is welcoming and kind and the teachers are dedicated and thoughtful in how they view each child. My child knows who they are as a learner and feels confident in what they can accomplish. The curriculum is engaging and unique. It is a special place.

Our three kids have had a wonderful experience at FSS! They all joined in PreK and they have become kind, smart, motivated teenagers. I'm so grateful they were able to escape the typical middle school trauma/drama and are emerging with self-confidence and joy!

We switched our eldest to Fayerweather at the start of 3rd grade seeking a school where the learning would be significantly challenging, values-rooted, and joyful. We wanted a place where our inquisitive kid could really stretch her edges and feel comfortable taking academic risks (and sometimes mak...
