From its inception, Burgundy has educated children in innovative ways. Our students learn by doing. The school community and its two campuses offer a nurturing atmosphere that inspire creativity through the arts and develop critical thinking skills with an integrated curriculum and hands-on projects.

Burgundy doesn’t just refer to our school or our campuses. Burgundy is a beloved community.
The Burgundy Difference
Burgundy Difference
The Burgundy community is united by its commitment to creating a learning community that affirms children for who they are and where they are developmentally and that helps all our students realize their full potential as students and as people.

The Burgundy that our students and families love and enjoy today is the product of a handful of families doing together what none could have done individually: purchasing land, rehabilitating and raising buildings, hiring a professional faculty.

Environmental Stewardship
Environmental Stewardship
In keeping with Burgundy’s mission, we aim to help students learn about the natural world and foster a sense of stewardship for the environment.
Our campuses organically create authentic opportunities for our students to learn about the natural world. Burgundy students engage daily in active learning on our 26-acre Alexandria campus, where every classroom opens to the outdoors. These experiences are expanded through regular visits to our 600+ acre campus in West Virginia, known as Cooper’s Cove. We introduce students in all grades to developmentally appropriate ways in which they can connect with nature and take ownership of their choices and impact.
Learn about Burgundy’s current and ongoing efforts in sustainability!
