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 don’t just acquire knowledge—they 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.”

Looking for a little inspiration for what to do this chilly weekend?
Our Kindergarten class recently imagined and hosted a Game Week. This idea was rooted in collaboration, problem-solving, creativity, and community, and was 100% child lead.
It began with a shared question: How can we keep having fun and explore games in new ways? From there, students envisioned everything, including bringing games from home, making their own games, teaching others how to play them, and inviting grown-ups to join in. They designed an invitation, created classroom posters, organized game tables, and spent afternoons this week playing together with adults and classmates alike.
What began as an idea quickly became a joyful, shared experience. proof that when children lead, learning becomes connection, confidence, and community.
This week in our Middle School exploratory SURVIVE!, students applied essential first-aid skills during simulated emergency scenarios. After completing Stop the Bleed training, they worked collaboratively to assess scene safety, identify injuries, and respond with focus and confidence. Throughout the course, students explore survival skills, real-world problem solving, and the mindset of a survivor, building grit, preparedness, and real-world readiness.
Huge thanks to our very own Nurse Jen, who not only played the role of an injured patient but also brought the scenarios to life with some very cool wound prosthetics.
Because of inclement weather and unsafe road conditions, The College School will be closed on Monday, January 26.
