Who Thrives at The College School
TCS is especially powerful for curious, capable children who thrive when learning is active, meaningful and connected to the real world—and for families who want school to develop not only what their child knows, but who they are becoming.
We give children safe opportunities to take risks, make mistakes, and discover what they’re capable of.
“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.”

Learning takes you places at The College School!
As part of their States and Stories theme, our fourth graders traveled to Springfield, Illinois, for a two-day, one-night campout, taking their studies beyond the classroom and into the places where history happened.
Experiences like this are an important part of learning at TCS. Students don’t just read about people, places, and events. They have opportunities to explore them firsthand, ask questions, make connections, and bring what they’ve been studying to life.
💙What a fantastic week at TCS! 💙
From pajamas and creative backpacks to wacky outfits, teacher lookalikes, and decade day, our students brought so much spirit to Spirit Week.
Our community brought that same energy to Giving Week. Thank you to everyone who made an Annual Fund gift! We reached 79% parent participation, and every gift helped us get there.
If you didn’t get a chance to give this week, there’s still time. A gift of any amount counts. Tap the donation link in our bio to join in!
Thank you for showing up for TCS in so many ways! 🎉
Our 3-year-olds took their very first field trip today to the Litzinger Road Ecology Center, and the adventure started before they even arrived with their first TCS bus ride!
A big thank you to our dear friends at Litzinger Road Ecology Center for giving our PreK children such a wonderful first field learning experience. We’re grateful for this special place, this partnership, and the many opportunities it gives our students to explore and learn outdoors.
Here’s to the first of many adventures for our youngest learners!
