Welcome to The Pegasus School! Over the past thirty years, I have had the good fortune to visit many outstanding independent schools across the nation. The Pegasus School stands apart as a school created and developed for the education of bright and gifted students. Our school is a happy place and a demanding place. We are a community driven by outstanding teachers who inspire their students to soar in confidence and in achievement. Our teachers are committed to strong academic foundations, but also to essential character development in which students learn that success is not defined by material well being, but by learning and embracing traits of human character like persistence, positive attitude, generosity, responsibility, and courage. At Pegasus, we teach our students to lead lives of character and passion. The Pegasus School is a family school in which parents, siblings, and extended family members discover roles to play that enhance our students’ sense of belonging and participation. Our school is a community of dynamic innovation in which teachers remain inspired by Laura Hathaway’s founding vision of a community that embraces change and innovation to fully prepare our children to seize the challenges of the future. I invite you to visit The Pegasus School and to see our teachers inspire the next generation of leadership.
John H. Zurn Head of School
