The Cambridge School of Weston in Weston, Massachusetts, is a progressive coeducational day and boarding school for grades 9 through 12. Established in 1886, the school is dedicated to fostering individual strengths and multiple intelligences through a wide range of courses and variety of teaching styles. The school’s unique module scheduling system fosters deep learning and innovative teaching in all disciplines, including visual and performing arts.
Students are encouraged to explore new educational experiences and areas of study, and to be proactive in planning their academic schedules. We offer nearly 300 courses. No two student schedules are alike. Each student works with an advisor and the Academic Office to create a unique academic schedule that balances personal interests with college expectations and the school's requirements for graduation. Ultimately, each student schedule aims to provide balance, rigor, and stimulation throughout the year.
