From the Head of School
Greetings,
Welcome to The Sage School, and thanks for visiting. Sage is the only independent pre-k through 8 school in the
At Sage, we challenge gifted children to realize their full potential. We engage students in classes that allow full expression of their gifts and passions, and we nurture them in a balanced community that values not only academic and intellectual accomplishment but also social, emotional, and physical well being. Sage’s greatest strength lies in the close and constructive interaction between bright and curious students and an outstanding faculty. Sage teachers have the dedication, expertise, and energy to both guide students through the acquisition of classical academic skills and to follow where students’ talents and interests lead. Our lively classrooms encourage creativity and our intentionally small size provides flexibility and depth enabling advanced learners to go beyond the boundaries of traditional grade level materials.
Please take some time to explore our website and learn more about Sage. Here you will find an overview of our programs and curriculum, profiles of some of our teachers, and information about admission. You can also find resources on giftedness and gifted education and recommendations for meeting the needs of an academically gifted child. The website is an excellent introduction to Sage, but there is no substitute for the real thing. I invite you to visit and discover for yourself this remarkable community of learners.
Timothy S. Monroe
Head of School
