Children’s Community School is a progressive school dedicated to teaching children to think for themselves, collaborate successfully with others, and take responsibility for their own education in a safe and loving environment. CCS embraces the principles of diversity, self-determination and participation in democracy. We foster critical thinking, compassion, and respect for each student, their community and their world.

We seek a curriculum that is rich in possibilities for intellectual curiosity and for widening children’s view of the world. Children are taught to express themselves, develop healthy relationships with others, and explore their intellectual, social, emotional and physical potential on a campus that is flexible, spontaneous, and abundant in culture.

When it was founded in 1981, the school leaders sought to create a truly progressive elementary school that could invite a richly diverse student body. We seek the same for our dedicated faculty and staff.
