20th century schools, modeled after the assembly line, were designed to mass educate children in the same way factories built Model Ts. Even today, schools separate children by age, expect them to learn the same thing at the same time in the same way, and treat learning as unrelated bits to be memorized, tested, and, all too often, forgotten. A 21st century school should meet 21st century needs by allowing your child's learning to be driven by his natural curiosity.

At Mountain Laurel Sudbury School we respect children for who they are. Students are in charge of their own education in a healthy, supportive environment, learning what they need in the ways that work best for them. An MLSS education is flexible and spontaneous, allowing students to retain their natural curiosity, self-esteem, and enthusiasm.

For over 40 years, Sudbury schools have empowered individuals to realize their full potential. In our community character is emphasized over curriculum, and collaboration is valued over competition. As a result, MLSS students become aware of their strengths and weaknesses, acquiring the leadership and interpersonal skills needed to thrive in this Information Age. Come visit us and discover a modern, healthier, and more effective way for children to become adults.
