Who we are

Imagine an educational experience like no other for your child in Pre-K through Grade 9. 

Minutes from downtown Boston, a stunning, 41-acre campus, and one-of-a-kind educational experience await your son. 

The Fessenden School, West Newton MA, is more than an independent day and boarding school for boys in Pre-K-Grade 9. It’s the perfect intersection of tradition and innovation. A place where tried and true educational ‭techniques are woven seamlessly into a STEAM-inspired, passion-based curriculum. A diverse, inclusive, and nurturing community that emphasizes academic excellence and character development. 

Parents appreciate faculty for understanding how boys learn best and for providing the individual support and encouragement children need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. And, educational leaders turn to Fessenden for guidance on developing hands-on, project-based curricula that will help students to master the “six Cs”: critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity, character, and cross-cultural competency - skills they will need to succeed in secondary school and beyond.
