Special Programs

At Nantucket New School, special programs are woven into the fabric of everyday life, reflecting our deep commitment to whole-child education and our belief that meaningful learning happens when students are seen, engaged, and inspired.

Guided by our Approach to Learning—and the values of individualized education, close relationships, active family involvement, and a strong connection to our island home—our programming provides students with the space to wonder, the space to wander, and the opportunity to grow into thoughtful, capable, and compassionate individuals.

At Nantucket New School, every day is an opportunity to grow together as learners, friends, and community members. By honoring each child’s voice, nurturing cross-age bonds, and extending learning beyond the classroom, we create a school where students feel at home and inspired to explore. They leave with a love of learning, a deep sense of belonging, and the confidence to make a difference in the world.
