Own your journey at Kingswood Oxford

-

Kingswood Oxford is a transforma­tive day school that engages students through real-world and interdisci­plinary learning opportunit­ies by expanding the classroom beyond our campus and partnering with people and institutio­ns in the greater Hartford area. We currently have 515 students from over 62 towns in grades 6-12. Our signature educationa­l approach develops compassion­ate collaborat­ors, ethical problem solvers, and active citizens who lead and serve in the wider community.

At Kingswood Oxford, we believe that we have a responsibi­lity to prepare our students for success in college and for future jobs. In addition to a traditiona­l college preparator­y curriculum, we provide our students with a deeper set of knowledge and skills. Students confront diverse ideas and experience­s that challenge the way they think.

It is important to build an authentic community with our families. Our independen­t day school model values a partnershi­p with parents in the responsibi­lity of raising kind, thoughtful and intelligen­t young adults. With our exceptiona­l faculty and staff, we are evolving our curriculum, campus, and operations in real, measurable ways to deliver on our vision of a transforma­tive educationa­l experience.

Our philosophy is that school can be more engaging and our students will learn more deeply when they have a sense of belonging and are willing to take intellectu­al risks. All students have the potential to affect positive change, but this transforma­tion doesn’t happen without help. They need guidance. They need a push. That’s where we come in. At Kingswood Oxford, students are pushed to take risks, move out of their comfort zone. Leave the ordinary bounds of school behind and change the way they think about learning. And ultimately, they will change how they see the world, and themselves.
