The Foote School

Welcome to the fully engaged, fully alive Foote School experience. Foote is the kind of school where your child runs inside when you drop them off and is smiling when you pick them up. Students come from all over the region, from different backgrounds. But everyone is there for the experience, the Foote School experience. It stays with you forever.

The Foote School

Our academic program is designed for adventurous students. Our approach to education transcends labels. Informed by research, inspired by experience, we do what works best for our students. With intention, with ingenuity, and with deep respect for child development, we invite students to ask hard questions, dig deeper, take smart risks, and think in new directions.

Our students learn to lead in their own way.


The Foote School

In every grade, we offer opportunities for students to gain confidence, test their limits, and define leadership on their own terms. In established programs and spontaneous moments, students learn to advocate for themselves and others.


The Foote School

We dedicate every resource to the grades that matter most. As a K-9 school, we give Lower and Middle School students the attention they deserve — and the resources they need to thrive. We’re also able to create a community where childhood has integrity, where joy and wonder are prized, where students have the space and the support to grow into their most authentic selves.

We strengthen the mind-body connection.


The Foote School

Physical education and performing arts programs are built into the K–9 curriculum, integrating mind, body, and heart. On our ropes course, two innovative playgrounds, or interscholastic teams, students develop flexibility, resilience, and courage — physically, emotionally, and intellectually. Both on stage and behind the scenes, performing arts classes and full theater productions bolster self-confidence.
