At The College School, we believe in the transformative power of experiential learning.

With a commitment to academic excellence and hands-on exploration, The College School fosters a vibrant learning community where students not only acquire knowledge but also apply it in real-world contexts, preparing them to thrive in an ever-evolving global landscape. Grounded in principles of curiosity, creativity, and collaboration, we inspire a lifelong love of learning and empower our students to make meaningful contributions to society.

Students at TCS explore the world through authentic experiences. Along the way, they are part of a close-knit community that allows them to be who they are and to use their voice. It’s no wonder students love coming to school.

“TCS has far exceeded my expectations in providing an education for my children. While there are more hands-on, experiential learning opportunities, it’s the way my children are taught to view the world that leaves the deepest impression. My children have learned more than just academics. They’ve learned life skills that they’ll carry with them well into adulthood.”

♻️✨ It’s time to gear up for the school year, and give back to our community and the planet!

Starting today, Monday, August 11, donate your clean, gently used adventure ed gear and give it a second life for our upcoming Gear Swap. 🥾🎒 

Your donations help keep great gear in circulation and out of the landfill. Let’s get our students ready for their next adventure! Donated items will be available to browse at our Back-to-School Social on Sunday. 

We can't wait to see you!
Last week was a hot and action-packed one at TCS Summer Adventure Day Camp! With the theme Mystery, Motion, Solve & Sprint, campers became detectives, athletes, and puzzle-solvers—tackling gymnastics obstacle courses, designing badges, solving the human knot, braving mystery bags, and even escaping a real escape room. Teamwork, critical thinking, and summer fun were in full swing! 🕵️‍♂️🏃‍♀️🧩🔥
