At Browne Academy, we recognize that finding the right fit for your child's education requires diligence. Not only do you want to ensure that he or she will develop a strong academic foundation, but you want your child to be enriched personally and develop a lifetime love of learning. Browne's approach to education prepares the whole child for a world that is ever-changing. Our inquiry-based program helps students and teachers approach topics by focusing on the process, not simply the end result.

read moreEach student at Browne Academy is an individual, with a unique complement of talents, interests, abilities, and experiences. We create our curriculum to adhere to current standards and best practices. Beyond that, with our small class sizes, we are able to provide differentiated instruction to meet the needs of the individual learner and build confidence, security, and independence. Our teachers work closely together, sharing insights about each child as that boy or girl progresses from one grade to the next and formulating the next year's classes with the best academic, social, and emotional development plan for every child in mind.
