Schools
Whittier Place is justifiably proud of the Boston Children's School, an onsite
educational program for Whittier Place children. Also, some Whittier Place parents
elect to send their children to the Saint John School. Information on both is
provided below.
Boston Children's School
The Boston Children's School, Inc. is an independent, private school located
within Charles River Park at Eight Whittier Place. We offer a multi-cultural,
cognitive-developmental educational program for children entering into the Pre-School,
Kindergarten and Grades 1 through 3 levels. In addition, we offer a Summer Activities
Program starting in June.
Our
Mission is to promote the growth and development of children while also teaching
them how to learn efficiently and experience the joy of learning. At the Boston
Children's School we provide a nurturing environment in which children have a
broad range of opportunities to develop their individual skills.
Information about specific programs and admission can be obtained from the Director
of the Boston Children's School at 617-367-6239. The best way to know the Boston
Children's School and see children learn to love learning, is to visit with us!
Saint John School
Saint John School is located in North Square on the Freedom Trail in Boston's
historic North End. Since 1873, it has touched the lives of generations of children
in the heart of a dynamic city. Originally serving the sons and daughters of newly-arriving
immigrants, St. John's faculty proudly preserves a Catholic tradition of preparing
young people for the challenges and opportunities in a world of constant change.
Reaching beyond the border of a storied neighborhood, Saint John School serves
students from all backgrounds and from all parts of Boston and beyond for grades
K through 8. The school cherishes the diversity of its student body and takes
full advantage of the cultural and educational resources of an urban setting.
