Campus School has closed for the summer, and our educators are still in the process of finalizing plans for the fall. As more information becomes available, it will be posted here and disseminated to Campus School families by email. Until then, we thank our educators and students for their hard work in making learning from home a success this spring, and we are grateful to families who have offered important insights, suggestions, and feedback on the experience. We are accepting applications for the 2020-21 school year. Click here for admission.
