Start Date: November 2025

About The Croft School

The Croft School is a young independent school in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston.  Having opened in Fall 2020, our school currently enrolls 250 students in Preschool through Grade 5.  Over time, we will grow (one grade level per year) into a 300-student Preschool - Grade 6 school.  We are considered by many families and teachers to represent an exciting new type of school that is ideal for those concerned about the area’s existing public school (inconsistent quality; driven by standardized test outcomes) and private school (elitism; unaffordable; lack of diversity; limited innovation) options.

The Croft School is built around the following ethos

  • Rigor
  • Spark
  • Joy
  • Heart
  • Belonging

Our program includes high-quality math, reading, and writing instruction, innovative project-based learning, age-appropriate opportunities for play and creative expression, frequent enrichment and Spanish courses, and weekly nature explorations or community trips (field study).  Further, we seek to provide our families with an exceptional experience built around convenience, community, communication, and partnership.

The Croft School has sister schools in Providence (founded 2018) and the South End neighborhood of Boston (founded 2022).
