At The College School, we believe in the transformative power of experiential learning.
With a commitment to academic excellence and outdoor education, we foster a vibrant community where students donāt just acquire knowledgeāthey apply it, developing the resilience and adaptability to thrive in an ever-evolving global landscape.
Through authentic experiences, students stretch their thinking, strengthen their character, and gain the confidence to take risks and use their voices. In our close-knit community, every day offers a chance to grow stronger, braver, and more determined.
“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.”

Bravo to our talented and hard-working Fourth & Fifth Grade cast for their delightfully charming performance of Welcome to Candy Kingdom this week! š¬š What a sweet success!
Through a story all about teamwork, kindness, and finding your place in a community, students brought big energy, creativity, and confidence to the stage.
A huge thank-you as well to our faculty and family volunteers who worked with the students to help design sets, costumes, and countless behind-the-scenes details to make the production shine.
Snow boots one weekā¦spring sunshine the next! š
Last week at LaBarque, First Grade students learned the art of maple tapping. They drilled holes, set spiles, hung buckets, hauled gear up the sugar trail, and (of course) thanked the trees for the sap they shared with us. They even got to taste it fresh from the tree!
This week, with warmer weather and continued help from Mother Nature, students collected 12.5 gallons of sap, with more still to come. Soon: the sweet reward...boiling it down into delicious maple syrup! Experiential learning at its sweetest. It`s science you can see, touch, and taste.
