King School is a PreK-12 independent, college-preparatory day school in Stamford, serving the diverse families of Fairfield and Westchester counties. King School seeks more than achievement for our students. We open minds and spark courageous thinking. Our students discover and forge their unique paths to excellence.

Diversity is foundational to academic and professional excellence and is a core value at King. We think, learn, and work more deeply due to the many facets of diversity in our community, including but not limited to gender, race, ethnicity, religion, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, ability, and learning style. We leverage cultural differences and intellectual diversity to create an inclusive and vibrant learning community, allowing everyone to feel seen, heard, valued, and respected.

At King, we seek to employ faculty and staff who love working with children, have a passion for and expertise in their subject matter, exhibit a growth mindset, embrace our multidimensional roles, and prioritize the learning process for students, faculty, and staff.

King School faculty understand that true learning is nurtured through authentic and meaningful student-teacher partnerships. When students are known by their teachers both as learners and as people, they become better self-advocates and more responsible for their emotional and academic well-being.

We expect our faculty to incorporate student-centered best practices consistently. We constantly seek ways to deepen our understanding of the dynamic relationship between the learning and teaching processes. When students apply their learning in tangible ways, they can fully experience concepts, synthesize disparate disciplines, and reach a deeper understanding. The Lower School instructional program is framed around the Reggio Emilia and project-based teaching and learning methods. Our interdisciplinary approach to teaching engages the students in critical thinking and hands-on exploration. The inquiry-based and hands-on learning for middle and upper school students includes fieldwork, collaboration to solve real community challenges, and other projects that bring knowledge to life.
