— OUR MISSION —
The Perkins School community cultivates bravery, curiosity, empathy, and joy.
Bravery
Perkins supports students to enable them to take risks. When students feel supported, they are able to try out new ideas, learn from both mistakes and successes, and stand up for what they believe in.
Curiosity
We know that children are naturally curious about the world around them. The Perkins curriculum expands on their questions, provides them the tools to make discoveries for themselves and enables them to continue wondering.
Empathy
Perkins believes that a healthy, happy community requires everyone to respect and better understand each other.
Joy
We respect childhood. School should be a place students enjoy, where they have fun while learning so that they want to continue to grow and challenge themselves.
