King School is a place for place for curious students

At King School, the smartest person in the room is not the one with all the answers, it’s the one with all the questions. King welcomes curious students—those who aren’t afraid to ask why, to try something new, to get it wrong before they get it right. King embraces open minds and courageous thinking.

 King believes in the power of wonder. It begins with students becoming agents in their own learning. When students are exploring, reflecting, questioning, evaluating, and making connections — and teachers are creating and guiding these moments of discovery — students are truly learning. This is what King calls inquiry-based learning, and it is what students do at every grade level and in every discipline. 

 King students develop a research mindset and apply that approach to all subject matters. From discovering the world around them in Prekindergarten to crafting complex and multidisciplinary senior projects in Grade 12, students embrace learning through discovery, exploration, and hands-on experiences. 

 Every aspect of the King experience prioritizes and optimizes engagement — from the wide variety of active, immersive learning experiences to intentional efforts to reach each and every student. True engagement at King is the entire community’s commitment to excellence in learning. 

 King recognizes the power of community, one that celebrates multiple backgrounds and perspectives. Students at King learn from one another and become stronger together. The King community is made up of students from 40 different towns. It is a global community with more than 70 countries represented. There is no one type of student at King. Students have multiple interests, and the school offers opportunities to explore them. 

Wondering minds go further. By the time students graduate, they have more than learned, they learned how to learn. The world is rapidly changing; no one knows what the future will bring, but King graduates will be ready – ready to succeed and better prepared to better the world!
