About our school: Established in 1924, The Bush School is the oldest independent co-educational K–12 school in Seattle. Bush is a leader in progressive education, providing a challenging academic program combined with experiential learning opportunities. In the Lower School, social and emotional learning is integrated with academic growth through skill-building, imagination, play, and inquiry. Middle School builds on the foundation of joyful learning in the Lower School by challenging students to discover their strengths, grow through supported risk-taking, and turn their ideas into reality. In the Upper School, students develop skills as independent thinkers and collaborative learners on the path to creating a more just, equitable, and sustainable world.
