Bold Thinkers
At The Field School, we honor the individuality of each student by fostering an environment that is
creative, connected, and inclusive. Our students are inspired to become empathetic and creative
thinkers through research-based, innovative teaching and learning. We nurture each student to
become motivated and compassionate individuals and leaders. We
challenge students to learn from and develop empathy and respect for
each other's identities, opinions, and perspectives. Whether debating a
current issue, collaborating on a history project, conducting scientific
research, competing on the court, presenting a studio design project,
producing a video, performing in a musical, or giving back to a local
nonprofit, Field students and teachers encourage and support each
other as learners and community members.
Students soar when they use their innate curiosity, take risks in learning,
collaborate with peers and teachers, learn to identify the “why” behind
their successes and mistakes and utilize reflective practice. This learning
atmosphere grounds challenging academic content in rigorous
exploration, allowing each student to make personal connections.
Each day, Field students undertake demanding intellectual pursuits with
their teachers and peers—from reading and analyzing classical texts to
working with the mathematical concept of symmetry as it relates to
music, architecture, biology, or psychology. Classrooms overflow with
dialogue,
inquiry,
and
critical thinking. As a
result, students engage
in meaningful work in
their classes.
