Admissions

This is what it means to be fully engaged.

Welcome to the fully engaged, fully alive Foote School experience.

There’s a lot of learning by doing: experimenting, collaborating, revising. Students are always digging deeper, asking hard questions, looking for new challenges. It’s a K–9 school, so every resource is dedicated to lower and middle school students, and students take leadership roles at each stage. They come from all over the region, from different backgrounds.

But everyone is here for the experience, the Foote School experience. It stays with you forever. 

The best thing about being a Foote School student is having a great support system from the time you get on campus. Foote School students and faculty are welcoming, respectful, and willing to help you navigate through hardships you may experience. Will, eighth Grade
