Upper School
The Upper School will launch in September 2025, which will be located in the First Church Congregational Boxford’s beautiful parsonage building next door to the main school building. We are recruiting 9th and 10th graders for our opening year and will expand to 11th and 12th grade in the coming years.
The Rhetoric Stage
In the Upper School, rhetoric is emphasized as students learn to bring harmony to their environment and those around them by learning how to construct persuasive arguments, to write and speak eloquently, and to solve complex problems by identifying underlying patterns and leveraging them to work toward a solution. At this stage students begin to fluidly integrate the skills they developed at the lower stages, bringing the fruit of their former labors to maturity. Learn more about our curriculum HERE.
