Commonwealth School

The mission of Commonwealth School is to educate young people from diverse backgrounds to become knowledgeable, thoughtful, and creative adults, capable of careful analysis, fruitful cooperation, responsible leadership, and deep commitment. By bringing together inquisitive young people and teachers passionate about their subjects, we kindle an energy that opens and unfolds minds. Our small size is our strength, and Commonwealth fosters close, supportive relationships between students and their advisors, teachers, and classmates. A love of learning, the ability to think deeply, individualism—all are cultivated here.
