We say we take education personally at Emerson, and that sentiment has two very important meanings:
First, it describes our unique environment where each child’s curiosity, interests, and potential actually help to shape their experiences. It’s the philosophy that the greatest level of enthusiasm and the purest joy of learning happen when a child’s own rich combination of intelligence and talents are deeply understood, encouraged, and celebrated.
The second meaning, and I believe the most important, is that at Emerson, we take education deeply to heart. Because we couldn’t fulfill our mission if we did not share a love of teaching, a commitment to innovation, a mastery of the balance of enrichment and support, and the passion for possibilities.
We partner with parents to bring out the personal best in each child and are proud to offer a specialized approach to whole-child education you won’t find anyplace else. We invite you to explore and learn more. Visit our campus. Meet our faculty. Be excited by the possibilities. See for yourself why Emerson is a place where children discover how great school can really be—and how great they themselves can be.
