A Community of Lifelong Learners

We believe that education doesn’t have a finish line. It’s a joyful journey, from playing with building blocks to constructing complex mathematical proofs. Along the way, our teachers nurture students’ love of learning so they become critical thinkers for life. Teachers, too, delight in building on their own skills, modeling the joy they cultivate in students. Rowland Hall supports learners of all ages: we invest in faculty and programs in our pursuit of excellence so that we’re all at the top of our game. The majority of our educators hold advanced degrees and reflect a range of worldly experiences and perspectives that make learning here deep and diverse.

Social-Emotional Learning & Support

Research shows that students are more lonely and anxious than ever before, and when students’ anxiety increases, academic performance decreases. At Rowland Hall, your student will have a safe and nurturing place to find their voice and learn skills that empower them to make friends, resolve conflicts, and step confidently into new experiences. In our warm community—with adults who know and value students and a culture that promotes kindness and inclusion—students have the space to be comfortable and confident. Counselors and teachers meet regularly to discuss students, ensuring no one slips through the cracks.
