The Rectory School’s mission is to provide students, from early childhood through middle school, with an enriched and supportive academic, social and ethical community that addresses individual learning styles, aptitudes and needs while promoting personal self-worth and accountability. The school community lives The Rectory School Creed: Responsibility, Respect, Honesty, and Compassion.

Rectory as a Second Family

While The Rectory School cannot replace a child’s real family, it is dedicated to providing boarding students with an enriched and supportive community, which becomes their home away from home. Rectory meets the individual needs of each student–boarder or day– and also asks each child to contribute his or her particular aptitudes or skills to the Rectory family. In this supportive atmosphere, they get to know themselves and become confident, lifelong learners and contributors.
