The Grove School

School Profile

The Grove School’s mission is to provide a learning environment that fosters self-responsibility through an individualized curriculum; and core course work that ensures each student’s ability to master individual and state competency goals. These skills enable our students to become lifelong learners and community leaders. Such skills also fulfill our mission of preparing students for their undergraduate education, making The Grove School a unique blend of Montessori and college preparatory curricula. Students have to compete 30 hours of community services and 40 hours of internship each year.

The Grove School consists of two campuses. The first serves students in grades 7-9 and is located on a working farm. The second serves students in grades 10 -12. Students walk between the two campuses for projects and classes.

Helping student to reach their full potential. Welcome to the Grove School!
