Small Classes At Norwood School Mean That Every Child Is Known

With a child-centered approach to teaching and learning, Norwood teachers take the time to understand what each individual child needs to learn, to be challenged, and to feel successful and respected. Class sizes are small, giving each student the space to shine while following his or her unique learning path. The result is a joyful and exciting learning environment where children of varying talents, interests, and backgrounds are actively involved in their own educational experience, while guided by talented teachers who truly know them.
 
We challenge students and we expect them to challenge themselves, but we do so in small classroom communities that are nurturing, supportive, and reflective of our belief that learning at its best is a joyful process. Children flourish at Norwood. They love learning; they are creative and critical thinkers. They are confident in who they are, and they feel safe taking risks. They are kind and caring people, who, fueled by our motto, How you lead your life matters, make helping others a priority in their lives. At the end of their eighth-grade year, students leave Norwood exceptionally well prepared for high school and empowered to make positive contributions to our world.
