Essex Fells School is a unique public elementary school that enrolls boys and girls from preschool through sixth grade. With small classes and a total school population of approximately 260 students, the school fosters a strong sense of community. Teachers and students have ample opportunities to form bonds of collegiality, identification, and support. The school's comparatively small faculty plays a crucial role in decision-making related to teaching and learning. Teachers collaborate, share experiences, and consistently support a student-centered approach to education. Essex Fells teachers are encouraged to explore new ideas, work collaboratively with colleagues, and actively engage in all aspects of schooling. The school's mission, inscribed in the original schoolhouse, emphasizes that "STUDIES PASS INTO CHARACTER."
