Fourth Grade students at The Advent School spent the fall researching and investigating ancient Egypt, artifacts, and archaeology as part of their classroom theme.

It was a joyful morning at the Third Grade Publishing Party! Students shared their personal narratives — about hikes, pets, trips to the beach, rollercoaster dramas and epic sleepovers. The pride students had in their writing growth and creativity was wonderful to see.

We are thrilled to share some exciting news! The Advent School won prestigious awards in the Boston Family Favorites competition for Best Private Independent Elementary School! Not only that, we placed in the Top Ten for Best Independent Preschools.

Please join us in welcoming new faculty members to the Advent community!

A grassroots group of Boston citizens founded The Advent School in response to the segregation in Boston Public Schools. In this article, we share the history of the school's inspiration and legacy.
