Crossfield School opened in 1988 and has grown to fill five or six classes at every grade level. Having a large faculty leads to many different kinds of teaming and collegial relationships within a staff of teachers who see themselves as learners. Crossfield has a strong instructional program in which student engagement with learning is important. Students at all levels are encouraged to develop an understanding of both the content and the process of learning. Parents are active and involved in student life at Crossfield.
Volunteers are very much in evidence on a daily basis.
In addition to providing extra hands, the PTA supports a wide variety of initiatives, including funding for student enrichment, staff development, and an outdoor classroom. An active teacher-research group uses inquiry to explore best practice. Special education students are included in general education classrooms. Our staff uses differentiated instruction to meet the needs of students with varied learning styles and abilities. An energetic staff, focused students, and a supportive community work together to prepare students for lifelong learning in a technological age.
