Love of learning is fostered here.
We are not a one-size-fits-all school.

When talented, caring faculty mix with small class sizes, educational excellence results. Teachers and students form a connection that is unique to a small-school environment, developing bonds that often last long after graduation. It’s hard to get lost in a place like The Gregory School.
