Bringing Town's mission to life.
The best teachers are passionate about their subject matter, their students, and their own professional growth.
Our teachers are highly skilled educators, serving as mentors and facilitators rather than lecturers. They are champions, challengers, connectors, and excellent role models, pushing students to think creatively and deeply and develop leadership. We are committed to the growth of our teachers, with a uniquely strong emphasis on continuing professional development.
Overall teacher to student ratio at Town is 6:1, augmented by our three Division Heads, Head of School, administrators, and staff who help ensure Town is a warm, welcoming, exciting place to learn and grow.
