Groton School
Groton School is a prestigious co-educational private boarding and day school serving grades 8–12 in Groton, Massachusetts. Founded in 1884 by Episcopal priest Endicott Peabody, the school was built on the principles of developing character, scholarship, leadership, and service—a mission still emphasized today:
Cui servire est regnare
(“For whom service is perfect freedom”). Located on a scenic 480‑acre campus approximately 35 miles northwest of Boston, Groton’s centerpiece is the iconic “Circle,” designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. The school community of 380 students benefits from small classes with an average of 11 students, a 4:1 student‑faculty ratio, and a highly qualified faculty, 76% of whom hold advanced degrees. Groton offers a rigorous, comprehensive curriculum including classics, STEM, arts, and religious studies, with opportunities for student-led tutorials. Daily chapel services reflect its Episcopal heritage, and the school fosters community life through traditions like Roll Call, morning prayers, the Service Motto, and a senior “prefect” leadership system. Inclusion at Groton Groton is committed to fostering an inclusive environment with a diverse student body and support systems to promote equal access and success. The school actively works to address institutional biases and educate its community on issues of prejudice and ethics. Headmaster Temba Maqubela emphasizes action over rhetoric, guiding the school towards meaningful inclusion. Groton’s Strategic Framework 2030 aims to deepen its mission by prioritizing inclusion, affordability, and student well-being, building on initiatives like GRAIN to ensure affordability, emotional and academic growth, and a campus culture where everyone feels valued. The goal is for all students to access and thrive in Groton’s educational environment. No compatible source was found for this media. Beginning of dialog window.
