Designed for Today's Learners

Spacious, bright classrooms offer personal space for individual and collaborative group work. All are wired for for today’s technology—iPads, projection, teaching, and Skype, which brings the world to Park Street School. Whether busily working in our Science Lab, creating in our colorful art room or researching in our inviting library, students enjoy different inspiring environments throughout the day.

State-of-the-Art Gym Primed for Athletics!

We have a spacious gym, a rarity for Boston schools, where children play and compete in athletics. It features a 40-foot climbing wall, basketball hoops, electronic scoreboard, and new sound system.

Playgrounds and Green Spaces Just Steps Away!

We are just steps away from three of Boston’s most famous wide open, green spaces. We play ball games, including football and soccer, in The Boston Common; climb, zip-line, run, jump, and strengthen at the Esplanade Playspace; and explore, have class, walk, paint on canvas, and read after recess in the Boston Public Garden.

Kindergarten at the Advent

Beginning and ending our day at Park Street School’s 67 Brimmer Street campus, Kindergarten students walk to the Church of the Advent to enjoy activities in their own spacious floor. Filled with natural light from large windows, the airy space fosters a unique Kindergarten community, one where we grow together and gradually transition into the larger Elementary School. Our flexible learning space and program encourages students’ autonomy and movement, all within the secure floor.

We explore Boston regularly. History comes alive when we visit Paul Revere’s home – within steps of our doors.

We discover and explore at places like the heart center at Boston Children’s Hospital.

Three of Boston’s largest green spaces are within feet of our building, allowing us to run and play outdoors daily for recess, explore during Science, or sketch during Art class.

We build circuits in Science in first grade.

We fashion Greek busts out of clay in Grade 6 during our unit on ancient Greece as we integrate Art, literature and history.

We learn skills, learn to work together as teams, and develop sportsmanship in the gym.

We collaborate in Science, running experiments together in the lab. Here we separate curds from whey, testing which milk‘s fat content is best to make glue (or liquid casein).

Learning to use iPads for research, second graders collaborate in pairs, collecting facts for their Greek god and goddess presentations.

We perform together, growing our self-assurance and poise as we sing to parents and friends.

Our teachers love to learn, too, right alongside of us!

We do love our Reading Buddies! It grows character, community, and is just fun!

We practice our speaking skills, and develop more confidence as we present to classmates and parents and teachers on a regular basis.

We grow our critical thinking skills, empathy and stimulate our curiosity as we build in design learning labs.

Being a neighborhood school located in the heart of Boston, Park Street School combines warmth and comfort with the stimulation that only a city can offer with its diversity, culture, and endless educational opportunities. The students participate in field trips that bring the lessons learned in the classroom to life. This enables them to connect concepts to practice in the ‘field.’

I love teaching at Park Street School because we are truly a community of teachers, parents, and students with the common desire to see children thrive as they grow in body, mind, and spirit. The enthusiasm my students bring to their learning is my daily dose of encouragement and a vivid reminder of why I love teaching.
