Welcome to The Berkeley School!

CIV·IC ENGAGE·MENT noun

  1. Working to make a positive difference in the civic life of our communities and, 
  2. developing the combination of knowledge, skills, values, and motivation to make that difference.

We’re excited to partner with you as you learn more about The Berkeley School’s curriculum, community, and civic engagement projects. We believe it’s important for students to realize the interdependence between what they learn in the classroom and their impact on the real world around them.

Our inquiry-led curriculum focuses on:

  • Current events
  • Conflict resolution opportunities
  • Empathy development practices
  • Student-led community campaigns

Practiced in a safe, inclusive environment, our students exemplify our core belief: what matters in education is what matters in life.

If you have any questions or want to speak with someone on our admissions team, please feel free to get in touch with us. We look forward to getting to know you and your family.

Warmly,

Lamar and Lavinia
