Careers
The Field School is a diverse, classical Pre-K - 8th grade school that feeds the hearts and minds of children through rigorous study rooted in a Christ-centered environment. Founded in 2017, we are animated by the dream of providing an exceptional education to children from all backgrounds. Our unique learning community is racially and socioeconomically diverse, and we reserve more than half of our seats for students from low-income backgrounds each year.
