INTRODUCTION

At the heart of the Church Farm School experience is our challenging and rigorous academic program that promotes a love of learning and the desire to explore intellectually. Honors and Advanced course offerings in all disciplines complement our core curriculum. We also offer a variety of academic support resources to enable students to be as successful as possible.

After careful consideration, the CFS Curriculum Committee made the decision to phase out Advanced Placement (AP) courses, which occurred over the course of several years, and is now fully effective. We have replaced APs with Honors and Advanced courses which set high standards. Our goal is to focus our program more on depth of study, especially in the humanities and sciences. A high level of interdisciplinary-thinking, inquiry, analysis, research and critical writing are components of all Honors and Advanced Courses.

At CFS we aim to educate the whole person, and we believe our academic program, coupled with our top-notch athletic offerings, community service and varied student activities and clubs, provide a unique and engaging “work-life” balance that is what our students will find in the real world.

Sincerely,

The CFS Academics Team
