Welcome to the Laurel School

Toddler - Elementary School & ​Summer Camp

"A Creative Path to Academic Excellence"

The Laurel School's mission is "to encourage children to discover their unique talents through exploration, critical thinking, and intellectual discipline;  helping them to become responsible architects of positive change in the world. To accomplish these ends, we engage in a total human development approach to education with a focus on the arts, music, nature, and service." 
​

Our philosophy of Total Human Development (THD) reflects several factors that impact the “Whole Child”: Pedagogy (teaching/instructional methods), People (whole community), Programs (what we offer), Place (environment) and Proof (outcomes).  Each of these important pieces completes a picture of the ‘whole child’ to effectively guide students through their learning.  As educators, we explore educational influences to enable us to tailor projects and curriculum to align with our mission and philosophy, helping us build an education that fits each Laurel student.


"Other parents ask me all the time 'Why The Laurel School?' and as I start gushing about the unbelievable amount of positivity you feel when you walk in the door each morning, and the Cape Cod Classroom van that they take off campus to explore and learn about the community we live in, and the teachers who are so committed to this school they go above and beyond any parents expectations, and the absolutely amazing whole school projects they present several times a year, and how the children are really learning all around life skills - there is no question." - Justine Coppenrath, Parent

Our bullying prevention and intervention policy is now posted under the 'innovative education' tab under About Us.  If you have any questions or  feedback please contact the Head of School via email: amy@laurel-school.org or calling the front office.
