My daughter has been extremely happy with her first year (6th Grade). The level of involvement of the faculty and the consistent outreach to parents to keep us abreast of progress has been outstanding.

As a soon to be graduate from Field, I've had a very positive experience. Field has taught me how to be a strong student with a good work ethic. I had amazing relationships with my teachers making it easier and comfortable when it came to asking for help. Field provided every tool I could need to become successful in life. I got to engage with my peers through events planned by Field and gained a strong sense of community. Field has helped shape me into the person I am today and definitely helped set me up to continue on my next journey.

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.

Horrible attitude towards children’s socioemotional development. Racism amongst staff is barely addressed, mocking of student disabilities is ignored, parent concerns are dismissed with statements that “things have always been like that.” Advisory is a waste of time and there is no effort to foster...

“Intelligence plus character that is the goal of true education.” – Martin Luther King Jr. The Field School has been our twin's "passport to their future" for nearly 7 years. The open line of communication and the immense respect between the Field faculty and their students is like no other. There h...
