The Field School High School
After over a year of prayerful discernment, discussion, and research, we are excited to share that The Field School will expand into high school. The high school will officially launch with 9th and 10th grade in Fall 2028, with a 9th grade co-op beginning in Fall 2027.
The Field School High School
Founded in 2017, The Field School currently serves students in Pre-K through 8th grade but will grow into high school grades. We plan to officially launch the high school with 9th and 10th grade in Fall 2028, with a 9th grade co-op beginning in Fall 2027.
The high school will continue and deepen The Field School’s mission as a diverse, classical, Christ-centered school. Our vision remains for rigorous learning oriented toward wisdom, true discipleship, and healthy relationships among people from different backgrounds.
As we grow, students will have opportunities to participate in a wide variety of co-curriculars, lead and serve their community, travel, and discover their unique gifts.
A distinctive part of the high school experience will be Common Arts: practical, hands-on disciplines that meet fundamental human needs, things like gardening, woodworking, cooking, sewing, and other skills that cultivate wisdom in the real world.

High School is the next chapter of a Field School education—a classical, diverse, Christ-centered community where students are formed in mind, body, and soul.

Become who you were created to be.
High school students are wrestling with big questions:
- Who am I becoming?
- What is worth giving my life to?
- How might God use who I am and what I have for the good of others?
College acceptance is important, but high school is about more than that. It’s about becoming the kind of person ready to live a faithful, meaningful life.
We want our graduates to be prepared to flourish wherever God calls them—whether college, career, church, or community.
Our vision is for graduates with strong minds, capable hands, Christ-like character, and a deep love for God’s Kingdom and their calling within it.
