Deeper Learning at Allen-Stevenson

What is Deeper Learning at Allen-Stevenson?


“At Allen-Stevenson, we believe that life is intrinsically interesting and that a good education unlocks its mysteries. We cannot educate solely in terms of achievement testing or secondary school placement, but rather for the wonder, play, exploration and discovery that only childhood can afford. Our teachers encourage each boy to stretch his talents and appreciate the energy, interests and perspectives that others bring. As a result, our graduates are more than prepared: they are self-aware, compassionate, and world ready. They are open to deeper learning.”

~ David Trower, Head of School
