School Profile 2022-2023 School and Community

From the first day students begin their education at Ravenscroft, they are taught to be globally aware and inclusive citizen leaders. Through Ravenscroft’s Lead From Here (LFH) curriculum, students explore their passions and demonstrate more than 15 key competencies including how to be growth-minded, resilient, collaborative, culturally inclusive, empathetic, reflective, adaptive and resourceful. By partnering with the Center for Creative Leadership—one of the world’s top providers of executive education—we deliver a one-of-a-kind educational framework designed to foster early leadership development. Combining academic, athletic and artistic excellence with citizen leadership learning in our coeducational, college preparatory day school, Ravenscroft nurtures individual potential and prepares students to thrive in a complex and interdependent world.

At Ravenscroft, we believe it is the responsibility of each person in our community to embrace diversity, equity and inclusion in every aspect of school life — from our classrooms to our boardroom, from the arts to athletics. We listen to, empathize with, learn from, and value our differences, both visible and invisible. We are committed to fostering an atmosphere of unyielding curiosity where students, faculty, staff, alumni and families are respected, feel safe, and have a sense of belonging. In turn, we build citizen leaders equipped to thrive in a complex and interdependent world and change it for the better. PARENT INVOLVEMENT
