Experience summer at Foote.
Fully engaged, truly seen.
Ours is a community where childhood has integrity, where joy and wonder are prized, where students have the space and the support to grow into their most authentic selves.
Leading in their own way.
In every grade, we offer opportunities for students to gain confidence, test their limits, and define leadership on their own terms. Our students learn to advocate for themselves and others.
Plan, build, experiment, explore.
There’s a lot of learning by doing: experimenting, collaborating, revising. Students are always digging deeper, asking hard questions, looking for new challenges.
Designed for adventurous students.
Our approach to education transcends labels. We invite students to ask hard questions, dig deeper, take smart risks, and think in new directions.
Learning from our place.
On our park-like campus, in our neighborhood and our city, in communities near and far, we learn from the landscape, the natural history of a place, the people who have inhabited it, the layers of culture within it.
Flourishing within our community
The power of our school is the presence of our people: how we find joy and wonder in the process of engaging with one another, how we honor our differences and celebrate our shared values.
Mission:
Empower children to lead with courage, compassion, and purpose.
A Balanced Approach
How — and why — we balance rigor and play, structure and freedom, expectation and joy.
Vision:
Inspire the next generation to change the world.
Values:
Ideas we live by: discovery, authenticity, and community.
